        B<equal>
        Returns true if the sets have the same elements and those elements
        are all equal.

       B<as_string>
       Prints the set as tuples:
            $b = new AI::Fuzzy::Set( x5 => .3, x6 => .5, x7 => .8, x8 => 0, x9 => 1);
            print "b is: " . $b->as_string . "\n"; 
        prints:
            b is: x8/0, x5/0.3, x6/0.5, x7/0.8, x9/1

  Fuzzy Labels

    A Fuzzy::Label label has four attributes: the text of the label (it can
    be any scalar, really), and three numbers: low, mid, high if you imagine
    a cartesian plane (remember graph paper in algebra?) of all possible
    values, the label applies to a particular range. the graph might look
    something like this:

              |Y               * (mid, 1)
              |               /  \
              |             /    \
              |           /       \
              |         /          \
             -|-------*-------------*------- X
                       (low,0)      (high,0)
         
    the Y value is applicability of the label for a given X value

    the mid number is the "pure" value. eg, orange is at 0 or 360 degrees on
    the color wheel. the label applies 100% at the mid point.

    the low and high numbers are the two points at which the label ceases to
    apply.

    note that labels can overlap, and that the mid number isn't always in
    the exact center, so the slope of the two sides may vary...

    $fl = new AI::FuzzyLabel;

    $fl->addlabel( "hot", 77, 80, 100 ); # what I consider hot. :) (in
    Farenheit, of course!)

    $a = $fl->applicability($label, $value); # $a is now the degree to which
    $label applies to $value

    $l = $fl->label ($value); # applies a label to $value

    @l = $fl->label($value); # returns a list of labels and their
    applicability values

    $s = new AI::Fuzzy::Set( $fl->label($value) ); # same thing, but now
    it's an object

    @range = $fl->range(); # returns a list of labels, sorted by their
    midpoints # eg: ("cold", "cool", "lukewarm", "warm", "hot")
