Heat Toggle is an impartial two-player game played on a simple graph, where each vertex is assigned a weight of -1 or 1.
A Heat Toggle move consists of selecting a vertex of weight 1 and switching its weight to -1 as well as switching the weight of each of its neighbors, changing 1 to -1 and -1 to 1. We additionally only allow moves that strictly decrease the sum of all weights.
The first row T(1,k) coincides with octal game 0.1337, see A071427.
The second row T(2,k) coincides with the octal game 0.137 (Dawson's Chess), see A002187.

EXAMPLE
The data is organized in a table beginning with row n = 1 and column k = 1. The data is read by ascending antidiagonals. T(2,3)=2.
The table T(n,k) begins:
[n/k] 1 2 3 4 5 6 ...
---------------------------------
[1] 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 0, ...
[2] 1, 1, 2, 0, 3, 1, ...
[3] 1, 2, 1, 1, 3, 0, ...
[4] 2, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, ...
[5] 2, 3, 3, 1, 2, 0, ...
[6] 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, ...
