(** We have already seen that, for our language, single-step reduction is deterministic -- i.e., a given term can take a single step in at most one way.  It follows from this that, if [t] can reach a normal form, then this normal form is unique.  In other words, we can actually pronounce [normal_form t t'] as "[t'] is _the_ normal form of [t]." *)
