When HHH correctly emulates N steps of the
above functions none of them can possibly reach
their own "return" instruction and terminate normally.

 Nevertheless, assuming HHH is a decider, Infinite_Loop and Infinite_Recursion
specify a non-terminating behaviour, DDD specifies a terminating behaviour

_DDD()
[00002172] 55         push ebp      ; housekeeping
[00002173] 8bec       mov  ebp,esp  ; housekeeping
[00002175] 6872210000 push 00002172 ; push DDD
[0000217a] e853f4ffff call 000015d2 ; call HHH(DDD)
[0000217f] 83c404     add  esp,+04
[00002182] 5d         pop  ebp
[00002183] c3         ret
Size in bytes:(0018) [00002183]
What is the sequence of machine language
instructions of DDD emulated by HHH such that DDD
reaches its machine address 00002183?
Any failure to answer with the sequence of machine
addresses will be construed as
