Depends on what yuo count as rejection. I don't think I would
try to meet that requirement.

The requirements are correct if the problem cannot be solved without
meeting the requirements but is solved when the requirements are met.

A function does not compute. An algrothm may compute a function.
However, no algrithm computes the halt function.

The halt functions maps a computation to a truth value
but so do many other functions, too.

When implemented as C functions

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

01 int DD()
02 {
03   int Halt_Status = HHH(DD);
04   if (Halt_Status)
05     HERE: goto HERE;
06   return Halt_Status;
07 }
08
09 void main()
10 {
11   DD();
12   HHH(DD);
13 }

The HP requires HHH to report on the DD() invoked
in main(). This is impossible because HHH has no
idea who its caller is and deciders are functions
that only operate on their arguments.

The halting problem does not require anything unless the input
fully specifies a computation.

The above DD calls HHH, which must be the same HHH as main calls if
DD halts. Therefore the bhaviour of HHH is a part of the computation
that the HHH would answer about if it were a halt decider.

The requirements of a halt decider don't require that then input
be presented to the decider the way it is done above. For exmample,
a text file would be acceptable.

HHH(DD) can and does correctly report on its input.
I just can get why it is taking so long for people
to understand that DD executed in main is out-of-scope
for HHH. It is like someone took actual brains apart
and welded in short-circuits.

My 28 year goal has been to make
"true on the basis of meaning expressed in language"
reliably computable for the entire body of knowledge.
The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

It's well known that each finite input to a finite program
has a finite static-analysis that determines whether it halts,
furthermore for each language of finite input it can be determined
via a finite-static-analysis a partition of the language into what
halts and what doesn't.


Infinite tapes or with infinite programs are different,
see "Zeno machines" since super-tasks have accounts of
mathematical independence (whether a model of integers
is a fragment and finite, an extension and with infinite
members, or "in the middle", since the usual idea is that
a standard model of integers doesn't exist).

So, there are accounts of halting or "completions" in
the infinitary that are independent usual finitist
accounts, whose Law of Large Numbers is only the
Law of Small Numbers, since there is a "Law of Larger Numbers"
and a "Law of Largest Numbers", about models of arithmetic.


Otherwise that's just barking about "V = L" and so on.

The pathological self reference between DD and HHH
causes the proof of halting according to the operational
semantics of C would itself not terminate.

It does not really matter. HHH and DD are not interesting and you
have never said anyting interesting about them.

HHH/DD conclusively proves that the halting problem
proof has always been incorrect. You must fucking
pay enough attention to see this.

It is stupid mistakes like this that convince people
that truth is not computable thus zero resources are
allocated to accomplish this.

No, it does not. Straw man is not a valid inference rule.

It is a partial halt decider that correctly reports the halt status of 
any algorithm that halts when executed directly and incorrectly reports 
the halt status of algorithms that halt when executed directly.

If you disagree, point out exactly which part of the below requirements 
is violated in doing so.  If you dishonestly trim this, it will be taken

are satisfied for the subset of algorithms that halt when executed directly.


Given any algorithm (i.e. a fixed immutable sequence of instructions) X 
described as <X> with input Y:

A solution to the halting problem is an algorithm H that computes the 
following mapping:

(<X>,Y) maps to 1 if and only if X(Y) halts when executed directly
(<X>,Y) maps to 0 if and only if X(Y) does not halt when executed directly

Correction: it correctly reports the halt status of any algorithm that 
*does not* halt when executed directly.

A actual halt function must compute the mapping from
its actual input according to the operational semantics
of this input to the behavior that this input actually
specifies. No function can report on the behavior of
its caller because it has no idea who its caller is.

The complete structure of this system is now defined.

The entire body of knowledge expressed in language is
comprised of two types of relations between finite strings:
(a) *Axioms* Expressions of language that are stipulated to be true.

My system bridges the analytic/synthetic distinction by
expressly encoding all empirical "atomic facts" in a formal
language such as CycL of the Cyc project.

(b) *Inference Rules* Expressions of language that are semantically
entailed syntactically from (a) and/or (b).

before halt it puts a reference i am going to halt, the caller will know 
it's going to halt, but will never know it did halt, unless it starts 
another process checking for that halt

Your definitions often are. But the well known definition of "mapping"
is not.

The output really should be based on the input
because computing the mapping from an input to
an output requires some kind of correspondence
between the two.
