The Fuzzy Logic Gambit as a Paradigm of Lotfi’s Proposals

Lotfi Zadeh, in discussing the future directions the discipline should have taken, has insisted in highlighting what he called ‘the Fuzzy Logic Gambit’ , whose basic idea is that, when dealing with the solution of a problem through the use of Fuzzy Logic, two different type of precisions exist: “precision in value”, which is connected to the ability of measuring reality, and “precision in meaning”, which is what we want to attain when dealing with the real world.
