  • Proof that the input to HHH(DD) specifies non-halting behavior

    Please think this all the way through without making any guesses.
    Only report on the behavior observed in simulation.

    Simulating Termination Analyzer HHH correctly simulates its input until:
    (a) Detects a non-terminating behavior pattern:
    abort simulation and return 0.
    (b) Simulated input reaches its simulated "return" statement:
    return 1.

    typedef int (*ptr)();
    int HHH(ptr P);

    int DD()
    {
    int Halt_Status = HHH(DD);
    if (Halt_Status)
    HERE: goto HERE;
    return Halt_Status;
    }

    int main()
    {
    HHH(DD);
    }

    What value should HHH(DD) correctly return?

    I just tested this on ChatGPT, Claude AI, Grok and Gemnini
