title: Get number of calculations in a program
body: <p>Please redirect me to right place if I'm in the wrong place, but I have a presentation to showcase an application that I built. The audience loves to hear big numbers, so just to impress I'm trying to put in a number which gives an idea of calculations that are being done in the entire application demo. </p>
  
  <p>I can use number of calculations the processor is capable of * time taken but I was looking for a more direct way. 
  If it helps the code of my application is in Python.</p>
