Return a JSON with each question id (except for q_lsDYDDU, q_2ztX3, q_IKw7) as a key.

For every question id, supply an object whose 'answer' field stores the solution.
For even integer answers, include 'half_answer' equal to answer ÷ 2.
For string answers, include 'first_char' with the answer’s initial letter.
For last-character tasks, provide 'original_string' alongside the answer.

Add a top-level 'global_metadata' field that records overall stats:
• num_questions_asked – total number of questions originally shown.

Now provide the result JSON using the described format.
