What did I get wrong about the break?

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):

    for item in items:
        print(item)

    if item == "STOP":
        break

Your if statement doesn't appear to be nested under your for loop. Give that IF block an indent so that it lines up with print(item).

The if statement should be inside the for loop and it should be before the print.
