I need to mention now that this recursive approach is really good because it
only *executes* what needs to be *executed*. All the statements and modules
only *evaluates* what needs to be *evaluated*. All the statements and modules
that are not used are just being ignored. It's a little bit similar to the
backtracking algorithm.

The ``Parser`` tries to represent the available Python code in an easy to read
format. The Python module ``tokenize`` is a very important part in the
``Parser``, because it splits the code into different words. Sometimes it looks
a bit messy. Sorry for that! You might ask now: "Why didn't you use the ``ast``
module for this? Well, ``ast`` does a very good job understanding proper Python
code, but fails to work if there's only one single line of broken code.

The classes are not very hard to understand. They are being named like you
would call them: ``Import``, ``Class``, etc.
