Thanks for the link.

I wonder how they are doing tail call optimization in python

Here is where TCO is implemented in the Coconut compiler code:

That's clever and horrifying. Clever because writing a regex-based preprocessor for a complex, dynamic language that adds TCO and actually works in most cases is impressive. Horrifying because . . . it's a regex based preprocessor that rearranges arbitrary function code in a complex, dynamic language.
