Lesson 6 of 7
break: stop the loop
break ends the loop immediately — handy once you've found what you were looking for.
Without break, the loop would keep running to the end of the list for nothing.
for n in [2, 9, 4]:
if n == 9:
print("Found it!")
break🎯 Your mission
In numbers = [4, 9, 15, 2], find the first number strictly greater than 10: store it in found, stop the loop with break, then print found.
