I don't see what I'm doing wrong in this exercise. Am I going about it the wrong way or is it my formatting?

Here's what I wrote:

def loopy(items): # Code goes here for item in items: print(item)

if item == "STOP":
    break
breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for item in items:
        print(item)

    if item == "STOP":
        break

def loopy(items): # Code goes here for item in items: if item == "STOP": # check the indentation on these two lines. It is not in the for loop. break print(item) # also, your print statement should come after your if statement.
