Pls help me..... This is so confusing

Can anyone help me to figure this out

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    # Code goes here
    for loopy in items:
        print(items)

        if items == "STOP":
            break

You're close, but have a few issues:

  • the name of the function is "loopy", you should pick a different name to represent each item
  • you'll want to test and print the individual item, not all the "items"
  • to avoid printing the word "STOP", the print should come after the test and break

I don't like giving explicit spoilers, but you might find some, or more helpful hints, if you look at some of the other questions asked about his same challenge.
