[Semidevil]

Just like a majority of things in discrete math, there is no practical application.

It's kind of the basis for all math...

you can always start grouping people in ATOT into sets and see how complicated the subsets are.

Fuzzy sets, or more precisely logic, are applied to topics in Information Theory and Artificial Intelligence since this gives a language in which to discuss decision-making.
