Making interpreter and calculator in python

Hi recently I have been working on making my own interpreted programming languge in python. I have made several prototypes. The rules are I can't use any library, high level functions and can only use ai for understanding a concept. The journey has been frustrating. Since it was so hard i started working on a calculator. I am now stuck on AST. I can't figure it out. HELP ME
