License

pyfuzzylite is dual-licensed under the GNU GPL 3.0 and the MIT License.

You are strongly encouraged to support the development of the FuzzyLite Libraries by purchasing a license of QtFuzzyLite 6.

QtFuzzyLite 6 is the best graphical user interface available to easily design and directly operate fuzzy logic controllers in real time. Available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, its goal is to significantly speed up the design of your fuzzy logic controllers, while providing a very useful, functional and beautiful user interface. Please, download it and check it out for free at www.fuzzylite.com/downloads/.

Introduction

fuzzylite is a free and open-source fuzzy logic control library programmed in C++ for multiple platforms (e.g., Windows, Linux, Mac, iOS). jfuzzylite is the equivalent library for Java and Android platforms. pyfuzzylite is the equivalent library for Python. Together, they are The FuzzyLite Libraries for Fuzzy Logic Control.

The goal of the FuzzyLite Libraries is to easily design and efficiently operate fuzzy logic controllers following an object-oriented programming model without relying on external libraries.
