    A lambda term is in beta normal form if no beta reduction is possible; lambda calculus is a particular case of an abstract rewriting system. In the untyped lambda calculus, for example, the term (. (). ()) does not have a normal form. In the typed lambda calculus, every well-formed term can be rewritten to its normal form.
