Click For Summary
Fuzzy arithmetic discussions focus on basic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fuzzy numbers, with participants seeking simpler resources for learning. A user expresses confusion about transposing fuzzy intervals and questions the validity of their derived equation. Other contributors suggest that there may be missing theorems affecting the transformation of intervals and emphasize the importance of understanding these concepts. Recommendations include seeking books specifically on fuzzy arithmetic for deeper insights. The conversation highlights the challenge of finding accessible educational materials on the topic.

fuzzy arithmetic...

hey, I'm a newbie in this field...just know how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide fuzzy numbers... but want to learn a bit more...could u give me some gud links to some sites tht explain fuzzy numbers, etc... all i get on the net is going over my head...some simple sites plssss, thnx...

also, i have this doubt...

[a,b] - [c,d] = [a-d, b-c]...right?
therefore, transposing [c,d], we have

[a,b] = [a-d, b-c] + [c,d]
and hence...

[a,b] = [a + c - d, b + d - c]...how is tht? or is wrong to transpose like tht?

wow interesting...

I recommend you get a book since all I've been able to find was how to add/subtract/multiply

I think there might be some theorem you're missing that maybe changes [c,d] to [d,c] which would give you the [a,b]=[a,b]. Even though the amount of numbers inside the interval [a,b] stays the same as [a+c-d,b+d-c] it is just translated to the right/left depending on c and d.

how is the amount of numbers inside the interval the same? think abt it... if u put
c - d = p, say...
the interval becomes [a + p, b - p]... which means the interval has shortened...
 
whops didn't notice that ><, yea there must be some theorem or something that's missing.
Probably any book that deals with fuzzy arithmetic will have it.

still can't find anything other than how to use a computer program to do fuzzy arithmetic...
 
Here is a little puzzle from the book 100 Geometric Games by Pierre Berloquin. The side of a small square is one meter long and the side of a larger square one and a half meters long. One vertex of the large square is at the center of the small square. The side of the large square cuts two sides of the small square into one- third parts and two-thirds parts. What is the area where the squares overlap?
