Looks better but can still use a few improvements.
See below.

To increase readability the general recommendation is:
1) Sort variable definitions with the longest first.
2) Do not assing variables when they are defined, do that on a separate line
below the variable definitions.
With one empty line after variable definitions.

1) Please comment on the purpose of the for loop
2) See comments above aboyt variable definitions

The rather complex expression - which includes a well hidden assignment -
is repeated a few lines later.
Please use a helper function and do not use such hidden assignments.

See comments about for loop above.
I also cannot see why we suddenly start with 1 where the other
almost identical for loop starts with 0?
If I wonder then someone else will wonder too => comment please.

Here the complex expression is repeated - at least almost identical.
