   void DDD()   
   {   
      HHH(DDD);   
      return;   
   }   
      
   Anyone with a bachelor's degree in computer science   
   would understand the notion of multi-tasking. This   
   is not the sort of trivial detail that would be   
   forgotten.   
      
   The way that HHH does simulate an instance of DDD   
   and then an instance of itself simulating another   
   instance of DDD is cooperative multi-tasking.   
      
   Universal Turing Machine (UTM) having the x86   
   language as its Machine description language.   
   https://github.com/plolcott/x86utm   
      
   HHH calls the x86utm to create a separate process   
   context with 16 virtual registers and a virtual   
   stack for DDD. HHH emulates DDD and an instance   
   of itself in this same process context.   
      
   That anyone would say this is impossible would   
   mean that their knowledge of computer science   
   is much less than anyone with a Bachelor's degree   
   in computer science.
