Dear All,

I have a list like:

{{{{-0.00201671, 0.87571, 0.482832}, {-0.839678,
    0.260735, -0.476401}, {-0.543081, -0.406384,

0.543081, 0.734789}}}}

I consider each of {{*, *, *}, {*, *, *}, {*,*,*}} is one single element, so
how could I count how many element in the whole list? Thank you very much!
