If and (i.e., , where denotes implies), then and are said to be equivalent, a relationship which is written symbolically in this work as . The following table summarizes some notations in common use.

Equivalence is implemented in the Wolfram Language as Equal[A, B, ...]. Binary equivalence has the following truth table (Carnap 1958, p. 10), and is the same as XNOR , and iff .
T | T | T |
T | F | F |
F | T | F |
F | F | T |
Similarly, ternary equivalence has the following truth table.
T | T | T | T |
T | T | F | F |
T | F | T | F |
T | F | F | F |
F | T | T | F |
F | T | F | F |
F | F | T | F |
F | F | F | T |
The opposite of being equivalent is being nonequivalent.
Note that the symbol is confusingly used in at least two other different contexts. If and are "equivalent by definition" (i.e., is defined to be ), this is written , and " is congruent to modulo " is written .
