Abstract
Even though the concept of fuzzy logic has been developed in the 1920s, but it was Lotfi A. Zadeh in University of California, Berkeley in 1965 that proposed the fuzzy set theory for the first time. The traditional Boolean logic offers only either 0 or 1 (false or true) as the acceptable values for a given variable. To the contrary fuzzy logic can offer all the possibilities between 0 and 1 as the assigned truth value of the variables.
