shopping_list = []
print("What should we pick up from the store?") print("Enter 'Done' to stop adding items.")
while True: new_item = ("> ") if new_item == 'Done' : break
shopping_list.append(new_item)
print('here is your list:')
for item in shopping_list: print(item)

482 PointsYou forgot to put input in from of ("> "). Third line should look like this: while True: new_item = input("> ") if new_item == 'Done' : break
I think it should work like that
