   This ChatGPT analysis of its input below   
   correctly derives both of our views. I did   
   not bias this analysis by telling ChatGPT   
   what I expect to see.   
      
   typedef void (*ptr)();   
   int HHH(ptr P);   
      
   void DDD()   
   {   
    HHH(DDD);   
    return;   
   }   
      
   int main()   
   {   
    HHH(DDD);   
    DDD();   
   }   
      
   Simulating Termination Analyzer HHH correctly simulates its input until:   
   (a) It detects a non-terminating behavior pattern then it aborts its   
   simulation and returns 0,   
   (b) Its simulated input reaches its simulated "return" statement then it   
   returns 1.
