Nice breather today (still traumatized from the robots). At some point I thought you had to do some magic for predicting special properties of the pseudorandom function, but no, just collect all values, have a big table for all sequences and in the end take the maximum value in that table. Part 1 takes 6.7ms, part 2 19.2ms.
