Although clear and concise answers were not necessarily brought to light, general acceptance was achieved regarding things for which Hamlet could not ascertain definitive answers. Essentially, what the whole thing boils down to is simply this: Hamlet openly struggled with his father's untimely murder, strongly contemplated the meaning of death, and ultimately succumbed to it himself. Revenge, as noted before, is, like life and death itself, a circular and repetitive cycle and can be expected to end in death; all life ends in death. In essence, the more Hamlet acquired knowledge on the topic of death, the more his conditions worsened, to the point that he himself no longer had clear moral lines that seemed so clear when his father died for the first time. The more he learned, the less he understood; the vast injustice of life was not in line with anything he had known before and none of it made sense. Hamlet eventually realized that there were things beyond comprehension that rendered his initial attempts to rationalize his father's death completely futile. Furthermore this can be compared to Shakespeare's acceptance of the deaths of his son and father and his eventual ability to move on.
