Hi, am receiving error on the continue code challenge loopy is not defined. Having an issue getting by this.

def loopy(items): items = items.split(',') for i in items: if i[0] == 'a': continue else: print(i)

You are already being given a list in the form of items so there's no need to split it at the start of the function. And because the for loop is ended with a continue you don't need to include the else also. 

def loopy(items):
    for item in items:
        if item[0] == 'a':
            continue
        print(item)
