Can't figure out the second part of "Continue"

Hmm it seems i can't figure out the functions

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    for stuff in items:
        if stuff == 'STOP':
            break
        elif stuff.items[0] = "a":
            continue
        else:
            print(stuff)
    # Code goes here

Hi there! I'm going to give some hints and hopefully these will help you figure this out on your own.

  • The completed code only needs an if and an else.
  • The challenge does not require you to do anything specific if stuff == "STOP", so that can be removed
  • stuff[0] should be compared to "a". Not stuff.items[0]
  • The single equals is an assignment operator, not a comparison

Hope this helps, but let me know if you're still stuck! :sparkles:
