input: Write a function to print each item of the given list with a message using a loop. The function should take the list as input and print each item in the format "The item is: {item}". If the given list is empty, it should print "The list is empty".
  
  assert print_items([]) == "The list is empty"
  assert print_items(['A', 'B', 'C', 'D']) == "The item is: A\nThe item is: B\nThe item is: C\nThe item is: D"
output: def print_items(lst):
      if not lst:
          print("The list is empty")
      else:
          for item in lst:
              print(f"The item is: {item}")
