In the two-valued logic we have exactly 16 possible truth-value functions, which generally can represent 16 logical operations. Among these 16 functions two are constant, and four are actually unary. However, in the commonsense reasoning people usually use the operations of conjunction, (exclusive and non-exclusive) disjunction, implication and equivalence. In this chapter the authors try to explain the usual choice of logical operations in two-valued logic by arguing that these operations are the easiest to compute in a framework of fuzzy logic, which is the most suitable for the commonsense reasoning. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1467.62007].
