• H(D,D)==0 is proved to be correct

    When simulating halt decider H correctly predicts that directly executed
    D(D) would remain stuck in recursive simulation (run forever) unless H
    aborts its simulation of D this directly applies to the halting theorem
    because H correctly determines:

    from a description of an arbitrary computer program and an input,
    whether the program will finish running, or continue to run forever.

    For any program H that might determine whether programs halt,
    a "pathological" program D, called with some input, can pass its
    own source and its input to H and then specifically do the opposite
    of what H predicts D will do.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem

    01 int D(int (*x)())
    02 {
    03 int Halt_Status = H(x, x);
    04 if (Halt_Status)
    05 HERE: goto HERE;
    06 return Halt_Status;
    07 }
    08
    09 void main()
    10 {
    11 H(D,D);
    12 }

    Here is the sequence when H never aborts it simulation: proving (a)
    main() calls H(D,D) that simulates D(D) at line 11
    keeps repeating: simulated D(D) calls simulated H(D,D) that simulates
    D(D) at line 03 ...

    When it is understood that halting requires reaching a final state and
    stopping for any other reason does not count as halting then

    The fact that D correctly simulated by H cannot possibly reach its own
    final state at line 6 conclusively proves that this D does not halt.

    When H returns 0 it is only affirming this verified fact.

    When it is understood that all deciders compute the mapping from their
    inputs to a final accept or reject state then it is understood that H
    must only evaluate the behavior of its input and the behavior of non-
    inputs is not allowed to be considered.

    Which since H actually DOES abort, is irrelevent.


    When it is understood that halting requires reaching a final state and stopping for any other reason does not count as halting then

    Right, but D(D) does Halt, as you have admitted, it is just that the H
    that gives an answer is incapable of reaching that point in its simulation.


    The fact that D correctly simulated by H cannot possibly reach its own
    final state at line 6 conclusively proves that this D does not halt.

    Except that D is NOT "Correctly simulated" by any meaning that also
    identifies input that represents Halting Machine, says that your premis
    is just FALSE


    When H returns 0 it is only affirming this verified fact.

    Nope, it is afferming that its UNSOUND LOGIC lead to that fact.


    When it is understood that all deciders compute the mapping from their
    inputs to a final accept or reject state then it is understood that H
    must only evaluate the behavior of its input and the behavior of non-
    inputs is not allowed to be considered.



    Right, and the INPUT to H is the DESCRIPTION of the Machine D and its
    input, and the mapping it is being asked to compute is from the behavior
    of that actual machine and input to Halting and non-halting. The fact
    that this mapping isn't actually computable, just points out that an H
    can not exist to do the task.

    Thus, you claims that you "Have" to ask H something else, is just an
    admission that the Halt Theorem, which states that this mapping is not computable, is, in fact correct, not refuted as you claim.

    No, the ACTUAL D which is defined to call the ORIGINAL H, not another
    member of the set, will be seen to halt by any other member of the set
    if H-like programs that are given that input that simulates this input
    long enough.

    If you give an H-like program a DIFFERENT D-like input based on it, then
    that answer means nothing about the original input D, since it isn't it.

    You are just showing your total lack of understand of anything relating
    to the problem.


    When we combine this verified fact with the fact that halting requires reaching the final state, and stopping running for any other reason does
    not count as halting then D correctly simulated by H cannot possibly
    halt no matter what H does.

    You mean when we combine your verified LIE, we see that you claim is bogus.

    Remember, H and D refer to SPECIFIC PROGRAMS, not "Sets". Try to do this
    in your actual program, define TWO different deciders called "H" and see
    what happens.

    It seems you flunked programing 101.


    This conclusively proves that when H returns 0 it is only affirming the
    above verified fact.


    Nope, it conclusively proves that Peter Olcott doesn't know what he is
    talking about.

    No, THE ONLY D defined, which is built on THE H (the only H that
    actually exists) which you have defined to abort its simulation to give
    and answer, DOES HALT.

    There is only one "D-like" machine, which is based on the H-like
    simulator that never aborts, that is non-halting, which is the only case
    you claim is true, but that H never answer, so it fails to be a decider.

    *THE* H, needs to be answering about *THE* D, the one built on it, and
    for any H possible that does answer, D will halt, so H is wrong.

    You logic is build on the LIE that H and D are somehow Schrodinger
    Machines that alternate how they behave.

    Computation Theory is NOT built on this sort of Quantum effect.

    You are just proving you can't actually speak a truthful word from your
    mouth.



    When we combine this verified fact with the fact that halting requires
    reaching the final state, and stopping running for any other reason does
    not count as halting then D correctly simulated by H cannot possibly
    halt no matter what H does.

    This conclusively proves that when H returns 0 it is only affirming the
    above verified fact.

    Yes, when propoerly interpreted, they are a "correct" claim.

    The problem is that the facts they prove are not the facts that you
    claim, becaue you are deceptively calling multiple programs by the same
    name.


    There is one, and ONLY one "class" of programs "D", which we can call D0
    to distinguish them, and one, and ONLY one "class" of programs H related
    to them, which we can call H0 to distinguish them that meets your
    requirments.

    The key feature of these H0s, is that they will NEVER abort their
    semulation. And Yes, for ALL of the programs in class H0, every D0 in
    that class is correctly simulated by its H and never halts.

    The problem is that NONE of these H's ever gives an answer, because the defining characteristic of these programs was they did not abort there
    input.

    Every other H not in that class, lets call them Hi, is given a DIFFERENT
    input, Di to analyize (Di is built on Hi). Since Hi is NOT H0, then Di
    is NOT D0, so Hi can not use the fact that D0 doesn't halt to answer
    about ITS input.

    Since every Hi DOES abort its simulation in the call Hi(Di,Di) and
    returns 0, we can see that ALL Di(Di) that call Hi(Di,Di) will halt, and
    Hi never did a "correct simulation" that shows that it would be correct
    to abort, so it does so by unsound logic, and is wrong.

    Thus, you are proven to be LYING about what you have proven, and your
    H's are shown to be programmed with incorrect and unsound logic in
    determining their answer.

    Yes, Every D that happens to be correctly simulated by *ITS* H (not
    "any" H, as you have only looked at an H simulationg its D) is
    non-haltin, but that is because the only Hs that do that are H0 which
    never answer.

    It turns out, that give H0 as its input any of the Di built on an Hi
    that does abort, and it will simulate its input to the final state and
    prove it halts.

    Note, this shows that you statement AS GIVEN, is incorrect, as only D0
    is shown not to halt when correctly simulated by H0, but H0 never gives
    that answer. All other Di, when correctly simulated by H0 are shown to
    Halt, and H0 WILL give the correct answer to it.

    You have just built your D to incorrect use the decider that is deciding
    on it, rather than the decider it was built to confound, thus, you whole arguement is shown to be flawwwed.

    As to Strawmen, you are the expert, as your whole arguement is based on
    one, as Halting is DEFINED to be based on the behavior of the machine
    described by the input, not the simulation done by H, so again, all your
    work is shown to be in error.

    Face it, you have proven yourself INCOMPETENT to do this sort of logic,
    and that seems to imply that your "correct reasoning" is almost
    certainly based on errors too, and it is unlikely that anyone will look
    at it based on the mess you have made with this.

    When H(D,D) returns 0 to its caller it is merely affirming the above

    incorrect.


    Except that the D it was given isn't the D that the above fact was
    determined for, because this H isn't the H that the D that the fact was determined for was using, and to be the rebuttal, H needs to use the D
    built on it.

    Thus, it is WRONG.

    And you are proven to be an idiot for thinking it is right.

    You are also show to be practicing deception by trying to slip in

    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts
    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts


    INCORRECT.

    You have proven that every D correctly simulated by the H that it was
    built from never halts, because that is the only D's you have looked at,
    and the only H's that correctly simulate their D's are the H's that
    never abort.

    If you take the Hn that never aborts its simulation, and give it a D
    built on any other H that does about its simulation and returns 0, then
    that Hn will correctly simulate the input to a final state and correctly
    report Halting.

    So, your statement above is just a FALSEHOOD.

    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.
    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.
    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.
    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.
    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.



    Nope. It would only be correct to return 0 for a D that the first
    statement was actually correct for. And that is a Dn built on an Hn that
    never aborts its simulation.

    And only Hn is given that as its input in the problem, so that is the
    ony H that the first statement says would be correct to answer that way,
    but it can't because it, by definition, never aborts.

    Right, Halting requires the MACHINE to reach a final state, which it
    will do if the H(D,D) it calls returns, which it will do if ANY H(D,D)
    for the same H and D return 0.

    The fact that an aborted simulation never reached a final state proves
    nothing except that by your claiming it means something, that you are an
    idiot.

    The ONLY 'D' correctly simulated in your set is by the 'H' that never
    aborts, and that H CAN'T do your last step BY DEFINITION, and it is the
    only one your logic actually says would be correct.

    You are just proving your inability to do sound logic, and poisoning any
    chance of peope looking at your idea of "corret reasoning" which seem to
    be now more like "unsound reasoning".

    Which just proves your STUPIDITY, since it doesn't matter what an
    aborted simulation of D does, what matters is what D itself does as a
    machine. Remember, the DEFINION of Halting which you like to quote and
    then ignore, is that the MACHINE reaches a final state, and D does.

    And D(D) Halts if H(D,D) returns 0, thus that answer is incorrect BY DEFINITION.

    Yes, perhaps your H is a correct POOP decider, as it seems that D
    doesn't POOP since H can never simulate it to a final state, but Halt it
    does.

    And you POOP is like an elephant's, since it is full of the straw from
    your strawman from your trying to replace the definiion of Halting with
    a simulation by H.

    H isn't a UTM if it aborts its simulation.

    As pointed out before, when H IS a UTM because it doesn't abort, you are correct that D(D) is non-halting, but then H can't abort its simulation
    as that makes it never a UTM.

    As also pointed out before your Hn (the H that doesn't abort) will
    correct determine any Di(Di) [other than Dn(Dn)] to be Halting, so the
    UTM arguement just proves you don't understand what you are talking about.

    You keep on imagining things to be what they aren't, in other words, you
    are thinking in LIES.

    Here is the sequence when H never aborts it simulation:
    proving (a)
       main() calls H(D,D) that simulates D(D) at line 11
       keeps repeating: simulated D(D) calls simulated H(D,D) that >>>>>>>>>> simulates D(D) at line 03 ...

    When it is understood that halting requires reaching a final >>>>>>>>>> state and
    stopping for any other reason does not count as halting then >>>>>>>>>>
    The fact that D correctly simulated by H cannot possibly reach >>>>>>>>>> its own
    final state at line 6 conclusively proves that this D does not >>>>>>>>>> halt.

    When H returns 0 it is only affirming this verified fact.

    When it is understood that all deciders compute the mapping >>>>>>>>>> from their
    inputs to a final accept or reject state then it is understood >>>>>>>>>> that H
    must only evaluate the behavior of its input and the behavior >>>>>>>>>> of non-
    inputs is not allowed to be considered.


    Anyone with sufficient software engineering knowledge knows that D >>>>>>>>> correctly simulated by any element of the infinite set of every >>>>>>>>> possible
    H cannot possibly reach past its own line 3.


    People with attention deficit disorder have to be told the same >>>>>>>> thing
    hundreds many hundreds of times before they first notice that
    they have
    been told this thing at least once.

    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts
    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts
    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts

    The above words are a verified fact, changing these words to form a >>>>>>> rebuttal on the basis of these changed words is known as the
    strawman
    deception.


    When H(D,D) returns 0 to its caller it is merely affirming the above >>>>>> verified fact, therefore H is necessarily correct and impossibly
    incorrect.



    every D correctly simulated by any H never halts
    no matter what H does because halting requires reaching a final state
    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.

    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does

    because halting requires reaching a final state
    and D simulated by H never reaches its final state

    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does
    no matter what H does

    Therefore any H(D,D) that returns 0 is necessarily correct.

    The notion of a UTM conclusively proves that D correctly simulated by H
    does derive the behavior that a simulating halt decider must measure.

    But only if H *DOES* a correct simulation BY THE DEFINITON OF A UTM,
    which means it doesn't abort it simulaion.

    The notion of a UTM conclusively proves that D correctly simulated by H
    does derive the behavior that a simulating halt decider must measure.

    Ditto to the Three year old.

    Ditto to the Three year old. Repeating bad arguements just shows you
    don't have anything better to say.


    Because all deciders must compute the mapping

    from their inputs
    from their inputs
    from their inputs
    from their inputs
    from their inputs

    And the input to H is the description of the program D (including the H
    it calls), and thus the machine it must answer about.


    To their own accept or reject state

    based on the mapping the decider is supposed to compute, which in this
    case is to accept if the input represents a machine that would halt, and
    to reject if the input represents a machine that would never halt.


    anyone and anything that says that H must report on the
    behavior of non-inputs contradicts the definition of a decider

    But D(D) is what the input to H represents.

    anyone and anything that says that H must report on the
    behavior of non-inputs contradicts the definition of a decider

    Maybe you are only a two year old.


    anyone and anything that says that H must report on the
    behavior of non-inputs contradicts the definition of a decider


    So, since you H tries to report on the benavior of a machine that wasn't
    given to it (the behavior of a D built on a different H) I guess you are admitting that you H isn't a decider.

    Thank you for admitting your defeat.
