    Credits to @[email protected] for the approach of using reduce and also how to split the input by multiple characters.
    I can happily say that I learned quite a bit today, even though the first part made me frustrated enough that I went searching for other approaches ^^

    Part two just needed a simple modification. Changing how the input is parsed and passed to the adapted function took longer than changing the function itself actually.

    Run with example input here

    PartOne ← (
  &rs ∞ &fo "input-7.txt"
  ⊜□≠@\n.
  ≡◇(⊜□≠@:.)
  ≡⍜⊡⋕0
  ≡⍜(°□⊡1)(⊜⋕≠@ .)
  ⟜(⊡0⍉)

  # own attempt, produces a too low number
  # ≡(:∩°□°⊟
  #   ⍣(⍤.◡⍣(1⍤.(≤/×)⍤.(≥/+),,)0
  #     ⊙¤⋯⇡ⁿ:2-1⊸⧻
  #     ⊞(⍥(⟜⍜(⊙(↙2))(⨬+×⊙°⊟⊡0)
  #         ↘1
  #       )⧻.
  #       ⍤.=0⧻.
  #     )
  #     ∈♭◌
  #   )0)
