    Version 2. I realized last night that my initial approach was way more complicated than it needed to be…

    import Data.List
    import Data.Semigroup
    
    maxJolt :: Int -> [Char] -> Int
    maxJolt r xs = read $ go r (length xs) xs
      where
        go r n xs =
          (\(Arg x xs) -> x : xs) . maximum $
            do
              (n', x : xs') <- zip (reverse [r .. n]) (tails xs)
              return . Arg x $ if r == 1 then [] else go (r - 1) (n' - 1) xs'
    
    main = do
      input <- lines <$> readFile "input03"
      mapM_ (print . sum . (`map` input) . maxJolt) [2, 12]
