#33471 — module trace and counts

Is it for or range that is executed 8000 times when I
for i in range(3,8000,2):

Maybe the for and the range contributes to that total.

Can anyone recommend their favorite trace or profile type tool that
spits out an html page? I like trace because I don't have to insert my
program into it but would like a html page too.

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.

I provided further info in another reply on this same thread.

But for sake of clarity and correctness here is what module trace
shows for a single pass:
 4000: for i in range(3,8000,2):
 3999:     pass
