It is shown that in a very general way two distinct canonical formalisms can be used to describe a classical system. No corresponding nonuniqueness is introduced into the canonical quantization procedure if the Dirac bracket correspondence to the quantum-mechanical commutators is employed.

Using Hamilton formalism of classical mechanic we derive in a simple waythe equations of motions of classical relativity. Applying the canonical transformation and the Lagrange-Euler equation we find the Schrodinger equation. Our objective is a pedagogical point of view.
