thanks ^_^ but is this the approach you had in mind for the solution tho? converting recursive to iterative?

Aye it's not about the speed of the language, but of the algorithm! See if you can figure this solution out. https://code.sololearn.com/cOI9b5cWv1Yz/#py

Just a different idea. Since your algorithm adds differences in a mod-7-like cycle, you can convert the bulk to a straight multiply (and add the remainder). The code below the ##### line generates the lookup table (instead of hardcoding it) and adds a debug explanation...it could all be omitted. https://code.sololearn.com/c9oezEh8G1P7/?ref=app

Please show your optimized code. EDITED: this is a requirement.

Yes I knew about that aproach. But I thought that someone would just convert the code to C++. EDITED: I thought that the C++ programmers would have advantage in this challenge.

@Schindlabua very good work of optimization. Very good indeed. You used a lookup table. EDITED: I just did not mark your answer as winner because the challenge was for who would get the answer first.
