Is a Move any kind of movement, or a specific type of action?

The answer about the Bulette brings up an interesting question.



Is Move a defined game term?




Whether a creature is a friend or an enemy, you can't willingly end your move in its space.
(Basic Rules p. 74)




It does not say you cannot end your turn in a creature's space.

So if you use something other than your Move, like an action or bonus action to change positions, can you finish your turn in another creature's space?

Move refers to your movement



In the PHB (pp. 190-191), this quote:




Whether a creature is a friend or an enemy, you can't willingly end your move in its space.




appears under the section "Moving Around Other Creatures", which itself is a sub-section under the heading "Movement and Position".



It is arranged this way in the basic rules on D&DBeyond as well.



The paragraph beforehand also uses move in this way:




You can move through a nonhostile creature's space. In contrast, you can move through a hostile creature's space only if the creature is at least two sizes larger or smaller than you.




And the sentence after:




If you leave a hostile creature's reach during your move, you provoke an opportunity attack, as explained later in the section




Therefore, the context for this quote is with regards to movement. Move is referring to using your movement, not a synonym of "turn".

            An IMO inspired problem

            Image
            14 4 This problem from IMO 1988 is said to be one of the most elegant ones in functional equations. Problem : The function $f$ is defined on the set of all positive integers as follows: begin{align} f(1) = 1, f(3) &= 3, f(2n) = f(n), \ f(4n+1) &= 2f(2n+1) - f(n), \ f(4n+3) &= 3 f(2n+1) - 2f(n) end{align} Find the number of $n$ with $f(n) = n, 1 leq n leq 1988$. The main idea towards the solution is realizing that these conditions stand for the fact that $f(n)$ just reverses the digits in the binary representation of the number $n$. So, essentially the solution is finding the number of binary pallindromes $leq 1988_{10}$. My question is the following : How to reformulate the problem so that $f(n)$ reverses the digits of $n$ in its ternary representation. Or even better, can we reformulate it for a

            Has there ever been an instance of an active nuclear power plant within or near a war zone?

            Image
            36 3 The question Has there ever been a military combat going on around an active (running or in outage but not decommissioned) commercial nuclear power plant? Or dangerously near it? If yes, how did the plant and its personnel fare in such situation? Why I ask Let's assume for the scope of this question modern commercial nuclear power plants (CANDU, PWR, BWR of generation II plus all of gen III and newer) are usually reasonably safe to operate given that the engineering has been done right and there is a whole cohort of very well trained personnel on-site at all times, well rested and with considerable resources on their hands. Things hard to get with an armed conflict like the recent Syrian war raging around. I can't seem to find any reference or a comprehensive article about this, hence this question.
