Need Help with Code Challenge Task 2

This is what i have. Not sure if its a syntax problem or if I am missing something.

def loopy (items):
    for item in items:
        print(item)

    if item == "STOP":
       break

Hey Kyle,

You're close, but the conditional check needs to be inside of the for loop and before the print statement. This is because you need to check every word in the loop to see if the word is "STOP" before printing the word.

Give it another go with this in mind.

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:
