Можно ли сделать этот интерпретатор постфиксной нотации Python (обратная полированная нотация) более эффективным и точным?

Вот интерпретатор постфиксной нотации Python, который использует стек для оценки выражений. Можно ли сделать эту функцию более эффективной и точной?

       * If the term is an operator, pop two operands off the stack,

    2. When you get to the end of the expression, there should be exactly 
       one operand left on the stack. That operand is the result.
