Explains how computers have brought a new practicality to mathematics and mathematical applications through the use of fuzzy logic and related concepts
By using fuzzy logic and related concepts, programmers have been able to sidestep the traditional and often cumbersome search for perfect mathematical solutions to embrace instead solutions that are "good enough." If mathematicians want their work to be relevant to the problems of the modern world, Sangalli shows, they must increasingly recognize "the importance of being fuzzy."As Sangalli explains, fuzzy logic is a technique that allows computers to work with imprecise terms--to answer qu The Importance of Being Fuzzy new edition

"A fascinating tour of the computing of the next century. Arturo Sangalli has beautifully described the three main branches of 'soft' computing: fuzzy logic, neural networks, and genetic algorithms, in addition to reviewing the main ideas and philosophy of traditional computing. Anyone who wants to find out what the mainstream of computing will look like thirty years from now (and perhaps much sooner) must read this fascinating book."--Doron Zeilberger, winner of the Leroy P. Steele Prize for Mathematics
