Before seeing mykl’s solution this was my solution for part 2
It’s basically the same, just that I used a while-do-loop, making the check for the ending condition myself (which took me a bit to get right because I still find loops in Uiua a bit confusing).
Using the repeat-loop as above also gets rid of the
