Why is my Jupyter Notebook unable to even finish running a cell containing correct code?

Currently, I am working through an online course where I'm learning about Pandas and Series. The following code is supposed to return the time taken to run a particular loop or function but when I run this cell in Jupyter Notebook, it doesn't finish. Keeps on showing: In[*]

%%timeit -n 10
#creating a brand new series to work with
s = pd.Series(np.random.randint(0,1000,10000))

for label, value in s.iteritems():
   s.loc[label]= value+2

Not sure how I can solve this because, for the instructor, it finished running in around 272 ms.

Thanks for any help!

It does run, it just takes some time to finish and depending on your hardware it can take a while. You can change the last number in the third line to something smaller and it will finish it in no time:

s = pd.Series(np.random.randint(0,1000,100))

[*] is indicating that the cell is currently running
