Unification — Logical Unification

Fact

A matching process that swaps variables so two logic expressions agree.

In Plain Words

Unification is fill-in-the-blank homework for logic. Put “pizza” in the blank, and both answers line up.

It swaps a variable for a real item. This makes two logic sentences match in automatic reasoning.
