Syntax again?

Can you check my code ? I believe it is syntax...

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    for item in items:
        if item == "STOP":
        break
        print (item)

Hi Dimitrios!

Looks like it's an indentation issue. If you want "break" to happen if the item is equal to STOP you need to indent it.

def loopy(items):
    for item in items:
        if item == "STOP":
            break
        print (item)

Hope this helps!
