def loopy(items):
for i in items:
if i == "STOP":
break
else:
print(i)

Treehouse TeacherHi there! Cindy is correct, but I would argue that the else statement isn't needed. Here's how I did it:
def loopy(items):
# Code goes here
for item in items:
if item == "STOP":
break
print(item)
Our function is accepting an iterable named items. So for every item in that iterable we take a look at it. If the item is equal to STOP then break which will cause it to skip over the print line. Then otherwise we print the item. Hope this helps
