I need you to help me finish my loopy function. Inside of the function, I need a for loop that prints each thing in item

What was wrong in my code?

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for item in items:
        print(item)
        loopy(['apple', 'mango'])

You don't need to include the data in your code. Remove the loopy array and the code will pass!

The code challenge will assume the data exists! :-)

I removed the loopy array but it did not work. It gave the error "loopy() missing 1 required positional argument: 'items' ".!!!

That's weird.

This code below is enough for me to pass Task 1. It doesn't really ask for an array, nor does the 2nd task. 

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