A holdout (or undecided machine) is a Turing machine for which it is not known whether the machine halts or not from an all-0 input tape. Holdouts are the machines which deciders are yet unable to decide. Contributors have shared lists of holdouts. Some lists exclude known equivalent machines, i.e., machines whose halting status is implied by the halting status of another machine. If a holdout machine with more than one undefined transitions is found to reach a undefined transition, the number of holdouts may increase as a consequence of TNF enumeration.

Downloadable Holdouts Lists
This is a table where people have added lists with no restriction or independent verification. For some of the entries there is a reference to a spreadsheet that documents what was run to achieve the result. For others, there is additional documentation on the specific BB pages.
