Description

At present, if you do resolve_variable('-1', c), it will error trying to find "-1" as a valid key in the context, as compared to resolve_variable('1', c) returning 1

I'll admit that I don't know a lot about python, so there may be some more elegant way of accomplishing this check, but I have a tiny patch that does correct the issue.

Summary: [patch] Fix resolve_variable to return negative numbers as numbers → [patch] Fix resolve_variable to return negative numbers and floats as numbers

Not only were negative numbers failing, floats weren't working either! (since '2.5'.isdigit() == False)
So there was some redundant code that was never going to work.
