    No, I will let you claim (without proof, so we can argue tha later)

    No, you are not. The "Hardware" would be the actual CPU chip which
    never stops the program when it is running. A Simulator is just a
    piece of software running on it, and what it does can't affect the
    behavior of the actual CPU running the program.

    The SIMULATION is an observation of the program, that if it stops
    doesn't affect the actual behavior of the program in question.


    *If the simulator stops simulating then the simulated stops running*

    void DDD()

       HHH(DDD);
       return;
    }

    DDD *correctly simulated* by pure function HHH cannot
    possibly reach its own return instruction.



    Only DDD correctly emulated by HHH maps the finite string
    of the x86 machine code of DDD to the behavior that it
    actually specifies.


    No, a correct emulation doesn't stop until it reaches a final state, and
    an HHH that doesn't stop doesn't map the input to anything.

    It is a FULLY CORRECT emulation of the input that shows that CORRECT
    mapping that HHH was supposed to compute, but doesn't as you LIE about
    it being correct.

    First, the emulation needs ALL the code being emulated, which includes
    the code of HHH, so by your definition, you can't do it so are a lair.

    When we fix that by including that code, we find that if HHH(DDD) aborts
    its PARTIAL simulation to return an answer (and it must or it isn't a
    decider) then when we give that same input (which still calls that HHH
    that aborted and returned) to a CORRECT emulator, and see what happens,
    we see that DDD calls HHH(DDD) that emulates the string given to it for
    awhile, and then it aborts its simulation and returns to DDD which returns,

    So, all you have done is admitted that you are just a lying idiot that
    doesn't know about what he is talking and haas wasted his life beliving
    his own lies.

    But HHH doesn't DO a "correct simulation" if it ever aborts and returns
    the answer about not halting.

    I guess you just don't know what "correct" means.

    You are nothing but a pathetic ignorant pathological liar that has shows
    that he has wasted his life by beliving his own lies.


    The halting problem, BY ITS DEFINITION, as about a decider deciding from
    an input representing the program to be decided on.

    Since you claim the input doesn't represent a program, it can't be a
    Halt Decider.

    A program include all of the code that it uses.

    Since you input doesn't include the code of the HHH that DDD calls, it
    isn't a program, and the byte pattern can not be correctly emulated past
    the first 4 instrucitons,

    THis shows that you are nothing but a totally ignorant lying idiot.

    When an actual x86 emulator stops emulating its input this emulated
    input immediately stops running.
    The input doesn't even run. The simulator is the only thing in execution.
    The SIMULATION is an observation of the program, that if it stops
    doesn't affect the actual behavior of the program in question.
    *If the simulator stops simulating then the simulated stops running*
    The simulated program would still be non-halting.

    DDD *correctly simulated* by pure function HHH cannot possibly reach
    its own return instruction.
    Only DDD correctly emulated by HHH maps the finite string of the x86
    machine code of DDD to the behavior that it actually specifies.
    Almost correct. Other simulators may map it too, to the behaviour
    of the direct execution. HHH doesn't.

    not understand it.

    The SIMULATION is an observation of the program, that if it stops
    doesn't affect the actual behavior of the program in question.


    *If the simulator stops simulating then the simulated stops running*

    No, the SIMULA*TION* stops running, the SIMULATED (which is the actual
    program) behaviof continues.


    Yes you are clueless.

    void DDD()
    {
      HHH(DDD);
      return;
    }

    When the simulation stops running the whole program
    exits to the operating system.


    Which just shows you don't understand the MEANING of the behavior of a
    program.

    Behvior is the UNCHANING attribute of what the program does when it is
    run. As such, aborting a simulation of it doesn't stop behavior.

    For example:

    THe program:

    int incr(int i) {
    i = i + 1;
    return i;
    }

    clearly has behavior of returning the value one bigger than its input
    (subject to numeric overflow).

    Now, if I tell you that I have given the object code of this program to
    a simulator that stops if it sees an instruction that adds two numbers
    or increments a value, that doesn't change the behavior of the PROGRAM.

    The SIMULATION of that program by THAT SIMULATOR may get aborted, but
    the behaivor of the program didn't change, because it CAN'T

    Of course, that concept is probably beyond your ability to understand.

    There is a difference between the PROGRAM, and an INSTANCE of the
    program being run, but my guess is you can only understand an instance,
    since that is fairly concrete, but not the concept of the program itself.

    The exact same thing happens with DDD and HHH. The PROGRAM DDD will halt
    if the PROGRAM HHH aborts its simulation and returns, as will every
    instance of DDD that is allowed to go to completion (which is what the
    behavior refers to). The fact that the instances simulated by HHH are
    aborted doesn't mean that the behavior of the program DDD stopped there, because it CAN'T stop, except at a "final state".

    Looking at your writtings, it is clear that you really don't understand abstract concepts, which makes it a shame that you decided that you goal
    was to do something in fields filled with abstractions that you just
    don't understand. But perhaps the issue was that because you couldn't understand them you fgured they must be wrong, and because it seems your
    Ego is unlimited, you figured (since you didn't really understand the
    depth of the nuances of the problems) that you could just redo the
    fields to something that made mre sense to your limited mind.

    That doesn't work, and just makes it clear to the world how little you understand of what you are talking about.


    Does you computer program stop at a point just because someone aborted
    a simulation at that poiint?

    No, I will let you claim (without proof, so we can argue tha
    later) that the simulation by HHH of DDD does not reach the
    return, but the behavior of the DDD simuliated by HHH continues,
    A simulated program doesn't actually run - it is only simulated.
    The SIMULATION is an observation of the program, that if it stops
    doesn't affect the actual behavior of the program in question.

    No, the SIMULA*TION* stops running, the SIMULATED (which is the
    actual program) behaviof continues.

    When the simulation stops running the whole program exits to the
    operating system.
    Yes. That doesn't mean that DDD itself would terminate.

    Because (a) We know that it is a logical impossibility for any decider
    HHH to report on the halt status of any input that does the opposite of whatever it reports.
    (b) We know that a decider is not allowed to report on the behavior computation that itself is contained within. Deciders only take finite
    string inputs. They do not take executing processes as inputs. Thus HHH
    is not allowed to report on the behavior of this int main() { DDD(); }.
    That IS exactly the input.

    Therefore we map the finite string input to HHH(DDD) to the behavior
    that it species on the basis of DDD correctly emulated by any pure
    function HHH that can possibly exist.
    The basis is the direct behaviour.

    Almost correct. Other simulators may map it too, to the behaviour of
    the direct execution. HHH doesn't.
    No decider is ever allowed to report on the behavior of the actual computation that itself is contained within because all deciders only
    take finite string inputs and thus never take a directly executing
    process as an input.
    Of course. A decider may, however, be given the description of its
    enclosing program as input.

    A Turing machine can report on the behavior that a finite string
    specifies. It cannot report on the behavior of any executing Turing
    machine including its own executing Turing machine.
    See above.

    The behavior of emulated DDD after it has been aborted changes the

    A deterministic program can't change. It was always going to be aborted.

    When the second call of what would otherwise be infinite recursion is required to be aborted to prevent the infinite execution of the first
    call this proves that HHH(DDD)==0 is correct even though the directly executed DDD() halts.
    The second call stops simulating just like all others.

    Unless you think the idea of UTMs is wrong-headed nonsense the behavior
    of DDD correctly emulated by HHH determines the actual behavior
    specified by the input to HHH(DDD).
    HHH is not an UTM.

    None-the-less we can examine the exhaustively complete set
    of every HHH/DDD pair that can possibly exist and find that
    all of the HHH instances that never abort their simulation
    of DDD never stop running.


    And we find that all HHH that do abort, abort one cycle too soon, which
    makes the simulation incomplete and, therefore, incorrect.
    We find that the set of HHH that simulate correctly is empty.

    No it return to its caller, or it isn't a decider.

    You are just showing how clueless you are.

    Turing Machines do not HAVE an "operating system" to return to.d

    All you are doing is proving how totally ignorant you are of the field
    you claim to be making groundbreaking discoveries in, which just show
    you to be a pathological lying idiot with a reckless disregard for the

    Face it, you are just showing how much you have wasted your life by

    Unlike you I can admit my mistake.

    As soon as HHH(DDD) aborts its simulation HHH immediately
    returns to main() and
    exits to the operating system.

    Right, and thus the HHH that DDD calls will return to DDD and DDD will halt.

    THAT is the definition of the behavior of DDD.

    That HHH only sees part of it in its PARTIAL (and thus INCORRECT)
    emulation just means it doesn't get the knowledge it needs of the right
    answer.

    You are just showing your ignorance of the words you use.

    "Behavior" is an attribute of the program (with ITS input), and not some
    other machines idea about it.

    The partial emulation that HHH does is part of the behavior of HHH, and
    reveals just PART of the behavior of the input DDD.
