Many-valued Logics

Many-valued logics are systems of reasoning that extend traditional true/false logic by introducing more than two truth values. Instead of just true or false, they allow for additional states—such as "unknown," "possible," or degrees of certainty—enabling more nuanced decision-making and reasoning about complex or uncertain information. These logics are useful in fields like artificial intelligence and fuzzy systems where binary truth isn't sufficient to capture real-world complexities. They provide a flexible framework for representing situations with varying degrees of truth, helping computers and thinkers handle ambiguity more effectively.
