## Overview
An object is said to be in **normal form** if it cannot be reduced any further. Examples of normal form include:
* [[truth-tables|Conjunctive Normal Form]]
* [[truth-tables|Disjunctive Normal Form]]
* [[pred-logic#Identifiers|Prenex Normal Form]]
* [[beta-reduction#Normal Form|β-normal forms]]

## Overview
In an **abstract rewriting system** (ARS), an object is said to be in **normal form** if it cannot be rewritten any further, i.e. it is irreducible. An object is said to be in **canonical form** if it is presented in the "standard" representation (where "standard" is defined per field).
Examples of normal form include:
* [[truth-tables|Conjunctive Normal Form]]
* [[truth-tables|Disjunctive Normal Form]]
* [[pred-logic#Identifiers|Prenex Normal Form]]
* [[beta-reduction#Normal Form|β-normal forms]]
In most fields, a canoncial form specifies a *unique* representation.

## Confluence
**Confluence** is the property by which two different terms can be further reduced to one common term. That is to say, confluence is a property of rewriting systems describing which terms in such a system can be rewritten in more than one way.
