Making a Python interpreter in 1024 bytes

Building a Python interpreter in just 1024 bytes of C is a brutal code golf challenge — and one developer pulled it off without macros or libraries. Using a recursive descent parser with global state, single-letter variables, and loop-by-reparsing tricks, the result supports if/else, while, for, functions, and even recursion. The golfed source clocks in at exactly 1024 bytes.
