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.

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.
