I'm sorry, I don't understand that question. Is it for what? What "it" are you talking about? If you run the code: for i in range(3, 8000, 2): pass the `for` statement executes once, giving 3999 iterations in total. `range` gets executed once. Nothing is executed 8000 times. > Maybe the for and the range contributes to that total. What total? I'm sure the context of your question is obvious to you, but we're not mind-readers and have no idea what you have done and what total you have got. Please explain your question. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
