Hello! I’m a little stuck on this problem. It looks like my for loop only does one iteration? Just looking for some guidance.
If the first item in contacts (contacts[0]) is not the contact you’re looking for, then your code returns “No such contact”. Always remember that a function stops executing as soon as it hits a return statement.
I was doing that last night and I got so confused when I was searching for Alice. One will say I found it, the other one says no can’t find it, but is the same name.
I personally don’t like using break.
The loops does do exactly what you think is doing.
The loop breaks out as soon as it finds a match. So if the search found the name on the first iteration, it will stop at first iteration.
