This is the function I made so far, but at the moment it only has two of the intended four arguments that I want to eventually add.

*The order of priority for rules is put in order of the numbers below.*



First I need to clarify Conway chained arrows(I will try to define them as an array notation):

-For any amount of up-arrows n, 0^n0 = 1, and for any positive-integers a and b, 0^na = 0, a^n0 = 1, and a^0b = ab.

-I define a recursive function C(x) for any possibly-empty string x, of non-negative integers.

  1. If x is empty or x = 1 or x = 0, then C(x) = 1.
  2. *Apply this rule to the leftmost example* If x = #,1,#a or x = #,0,#a for (possibly empty)strings # and #a of non-negative integers, then C(x) = C(#).
  3. If x = a, for a non-negative integer a, then C(x) = a+1.
  4. If x = a,b for non-negative integers a and b, then C(x) = ab.
  5. If x =a,b,c for non-negative integers a, b, and c, then C(x) =
  6. If x = #,a,b ,for non-negative integers a, b, and a string # of two or more non-negative numbers, then C(#,a,b) = C(#,C(#,a-1,b),b-1)

-I define a notation (x)&(y) for any two non-negative integers x and y.

  1. If x=0 and x=0, then (x)&(y) = 1, and if x=a and y=0, then (x)&(y) = 1
  2. (x)&(y) = C(st(x,y))

****************************************************************************

-I define "a function , wheredenotes the set of strings of non-negative integers"

  1. If y=0, then st(x,y) is empty
  2. If y>0, then st(x,y) = st(x,y-1),x

Now for the operator function:

-I define g^i(x) for any non-negative integer i and any possibly-empty string x of non-negative integers in the following recursive way:

  1. If i=0 and x is empty or x = 1 or x = 0, then gi(x) = 3.
  2. *Apply this rule to the leftmost example* If i=0 and x = #,1,#a or #,0,#a for strings # and #a of non-negative integers, then gi(#)
  3. If i=0 and x = a, for a non-negative integer a, then gi(x) = (a+1)&(a+1).
  4. If i=0 and x = a,b for non-negative integers a and b, then gi(x) = ga+1(a-1,ga+1(a-1,b+1)).
  5. If i=0 and x =a,b,c for non-negative integers a, b, and c, then gi(x) = ga+1(a-1,ga+1(a-1,b+1,c+1),ga+1(a-1,b+1,c+1))
  6. If i=0 and x = #,a,b,c ,for non-negative integers a, b, c, and a non-empty string # of non-negative numbers, then gi(x) = ga+1(#,a,ga+1(#,a,b-1,c),c-1)
  7. If i>0 and x is empty, then gi(x) = gi-1(gi-1())
  8. If i>0 and and x is empty or x = 1 or x = 0, then gi(x) = gi-1(gi-1(x)).
  9. If i>0 and x=a, for a non-negative integer a, then gi(x) = gi-1(gi-1(a+1))
  10. If i>0 and x=#,a for a non-negative integer a, and a non-empty string # of non-negative integers, then gi(x) = gi-1(#,gi-1(#,a+1))

-I define a notation (x)&&(y), for any two non-negative integers x and y:

  1. If x=0 and x=0, then (x)&&(y) = 1, and if x=a and y=0, then (x)&&(y) = 1
  2. (x)&&(y) = g(st(x,y))

Now for the actual function:

-I define a function f(c,z) for any two non-negative integers z and c:

  1. f(0,z) = (z)&&(z+1)

***********************************************************************

-I define a function h for any three non-negative integers a, b, and x.

  1. (x+1)&( f(x+1) )
