@section{What's the sum of all the numbers in the document?}
I've never liked JavaScript, and spending more time with Racket has only deepened my antipathy. So I apologize if this solution is terse.
We need to parse the JSON file, extract the numbers, and add them.
To parse the file we'll use the @racket[read-json] function from Racket's @racketmodname[json] library. This function converts the JSON into a JS-expression (see @racket[jsexpr?]), which is a recursively nested data structure. If we had a simple recursively nested list, we could just @racket[flatten] it and filter for the numbers. We'll do something similar here — recursively flatten the JS-expression and pull out the numbers.
If you're new to Racket, notice the @italic{recursive descent} pattern used in @racket[flatten-jsexpr] — it's a very common way of handling recursively structured data.

@section{What's the sum of all the numbers, if hash tables with value @racket{red} are ignored?}
We'll just update our flattening function to skip over hash tables that have @racket{red} among the values.

@section{What's the optimal happiness score for a seating arrangement of eight?}
This is a lot like @secref{Day_9}, where we had to compute the optimal path between cities. In that puzzle, the distance between city A and city B was a single number. In this case, the ``happiness score'' between person A and person B is the sum of two numbers — A's happiness being next to B, and B's happiness being next to A. (Unlike distances, happiness scores can be negative.)
Also, whereas a path between cities had a start and end, a seating arrangement is circular. So if we model a seating arrangement as a list of people, we have to compute the happiness between each pair of people, but also between the last and first, to capture the circularity of the arrangement.
Those wrinkles noted, we'll proceed as we did in @secref{Day_9}. We'll parse the input data and put the happiness scores into a hash table. Then we'll loop through all possible seating arrangements with @racket[in-permutations] and see what the best score is.
@margin-note{Math jocks might note that because our seating arrangement is circular, our permutations will include a lot of ``rotationally equivalent'' arrangements — e.g., @racket['(A B C D)] is the same as @racket['(B C D A)] and @racket['(C D A B)]. If we had more people, or the happiness function were more expensive, we might want to prune out these equivalent arrangements as a performance optimization. But in this case, it's unnecessary.}

We can reuse our hash table of @racket[happiness-scores], but we have to update it with scores for ourself seated next to every other person, which in every case is @racket[0]. Then we find the optimal score the same way.
