Contributions summary:Ubaid focused on improving the implementation and testing of the `chr` and `ord` functions within the Python compiler. This involved modifying the source code of the `lpython_builtin.py` file and adding comprehensive tests for these functions in the `test_builtin.py` file. The changes included updating the `ord` function to return an integer instead of a string and adding a suite of tests to ensure correct behavior. This work directly contributes to the compiler's functionality and the reliability of its built-in functions.
