Therefore, the only conclusion must be: No such HHH exists. HHH is fully operational in the x86utm operating system. _DDD() [00002163] 55 push ebp ; housekeeping [00002164] 8bec mov ebp,esp ; housekeeping [00002166] 6863210000 push 00002163 ; push DDD [0000216b] e853f4ffff call 000015c3 ; call HHH(DDD) [00002170] 83c404 add esp,+04 [00002173] 5d pop ebp [00002174] c3 ret Size in bytes:(0018) [00002174] When DDD is correctly emulated by any pure function x86 emulator HHH calls an emulated HHH(DDD) this call cannot possibly return. This prevents the emulated DDD from ever reaching past its own machine address of 0000216b and halting. HHH is required to report that it must abort the emulaton of its input. HHH cannot correctly report that DDD need not be aborted on the basis of the behavior of a directly executed DDD(DDD) after HHH has already aborted its emulated DDD. The sequence of sequence, selection and iteration cannot be ignored. -- Copyright 2024 Olcott "Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see." Arthur Schopenhauer
