A 1024 Byte Python Interpreter

A hobbyist crammed a minimal Python-like interpreter into just 1024 bytes of source code, capable of running a FizzBuzz program. The tiny parser supports integer variables and literals, assignment, arithmetic, several control structures, functions, and print statements, though it cuts corners: no bytecode, no syntax tree, no error handling, and variable names are restricted to a single lowercase letter. It resembles Python syntax but isn't truly Python, drawing comparisons to other extreme code-golfing feats like obfuscated C contests and tiny Forth implementations.
