fuzzy
Fuzzy in general terms refers to something that is not clear, distinct, or precise. It can be used to describe a blurry image, a vague concept or idea, an uncertain memory or something that is soft and fluffy in texture, like a fuzzy sweater. In computing, it is often used in the context of 'fuzzy logic', which is a type of logic that recognizes more than simple true and false values, allowing for degrees of truth.
