why doesn't this code work?

it says break is not part of the loop words = ["Python", "fun"] index = 0 words.insert(index, "is") if words == ["is","Python","fun"]: print('hi') elif words == ["is","is","Python","fun"]: break print(finished)

break can only be used in a loop finished should be in quotes

the problem with the break is that it is used to get out of the loop (while,for). since if is not a loop python interpreter gets confused and asks you what do you want with your break there.

Im not sure about the break, but it looks like there arent any quotation marks around the word finished.

Try change the break command to pass and add quotationmarks to finished. Then it should work! :-)
