You need to indent your break statement, as spaces are important in Python:
def loopy(items):
# Code goes here
for items in items:
print(items)
if items == "STOP":
break # <------- here's the fix for the error you're getting
else:
print(items)
Best,
Clayton

if item == "STOP": break
else:
print(item)
