Fuzzy Logic is a mathmatical approach to solving a problem
rather than a Boolean or Binary (True/False) approach. This
approach to solving problems is similar to the approach we use.
It was first thought up by Dr. Lofti Zadeh in 1964 when thinking
about alternatives to the Current Method of Air Conditioning
Theory about Fuzzy Logic can be traced back to ancient times.
Before Aristotle came up with the theory of binary logic, Buddha
suggested that everything contained some of its opposite.
Meaning good contained some evil, dry contained some wetness,
hot contained some cold, etc. This is a theory behind fuzzy
logic; nothing is completely true or completely false. In 1964
Dr. Lofti Zadeh was attempting to find a new and more efficent
method of programming Air Conditioning units over How It
Works<p>If you had a group of 50 individuals and you wanted to
classify them as old or young you can see how the two approaches
differ. In the Boolean approach anyone over a defined age, lets
say 45,would be classified as old
