Oops, I forgot that I need to break out of the loop when the current item is the string "STOP". Help me add that code!
def loopy(items):
for item in items:
print(items)
# Code goes here

Java Web Development Techdegree Graduate 30,124 PointsIt's pretty simple on how to break out of a loop when an item is equal to something.
def loopy(items):
for item in items:
if item == "STOP":
break
else:
print(items)
All you have to do is add an if/else statement which allows you to check through each iteration of the loop. Hopefully this helps you.
