For a fixed n, {(k,T(n,k)), k=1..n} is conjectured to be fractal in nature (see link). - Tiberiu Szocs-Mihai, Aug 17 2015

Rows:

0, 0;
0, 1, 0;
0, 0, 1, 0;
0, 1, 3, 1, 0;
0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0;

Maple

T:=  proc(n, k) option remember;
if n*k = 0 then 0 else (n mod k) + procname(k, n mod k) fi
end proc:
seq(seq(T(n, k), k=1..n), n=1..20); # Robert Israel, Aug 31 2015

Mathematica

T[n_, k_] := T[n, k] = If[n*k == 0, 0, Mod[n, k] + T[k, Mod[n, k]]];
Table[T[n, k], {n, 1, 20}, {k, 1, n}] // Flatten (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 27 2019, after Robert Israel *)
