hello,
I'm having trouble with code challenge 2 of 2. My code works fine in notepad ++ or at least as far as I know i.e. when it finds "STOP" in items it prints STOP and stops. However I cant seem to get it to work properly here. Any assistance would be appreciated
Thank you Take Care, Sean
def loopy(items):
for s in items:
print(s)
if s == 'STOP':
break

def loopy(items):
for s in items:
if s == 'STOP':
break
print(s)

def loopy(items):
for s in items:
if s == 'STOP':
break
print(s)
it's not accepting mine either. my Python IDE is not showing any errors and I'm wondering why the page is not accepting the code.
my code
def loopy(items):
for item in items:
print(item)
if items in items == "STOP":
print(item)
break
