As they say in TDD, write a test, then write the simplest code that will make it pass.

Clearly supporting multiple functions starting with 'p' would be overengineering.

Good idea. Write a python script, and then code the minimal c interpreter possible to make that specific script work, utilizing the script itself as string reference (and any other way one can manage to utilize it in the interpreter itself).

Someone actually testing Kolmogorov Complexity LOL
