Equiconsistency

Equiconsistency is a type of mathematical consistency. It means that all the solutions found to a problem are the same no matter how you work out the problem. Think of it like a recipe. When a recipe tells you to add two cups of flour, the amount of flour you add will stay the same no matter how you measure it. You can use a cup or a tablespoon, or a cup and a half, but no matter how you do it, the end result will always be two cups of flour. Equiconsistency is like that, but with math problems.
