@ChipHurst Right, a fencepost problem. And if you use Nothing, Table will actually create a list of length 8, but afterwards Nothing causes List to contract. E.g. Table[Nothing, {x, 3, 10}] // Trace.

Length[Table[(* anything except Nothing *), {x, 3, 10}]] is 8 for example.

@ChipHurst The number of iterations to be performed is returned (= length of Table if used in Table[]). Does that answer your question?
