A Terminating Turmite or Relative Movement Turing Machine is a Turing machine which uses relative directions instead of absolute ones. So instead of moving (L)eft or (R)ight, it (P)roceeds forward (for one step in the same direction as last move or (T)urns-around (move one direction in the opposite direction). TT(n,k) is the maximum steps of all halting n-state, k-symbol Terminating Turmites when started on a blank tape. It was coined by @creeperman7002 who has studied small cases.
