I don't understand what am I doing wrong.

How do solve this problem

banana.py 
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."
menu.format(", ".join(sundaes))

Hi Kunal,

You are so very close and your actual answer does work, the only thing stopping you passing is that you didn't do it on one line as the challenge requested! Just structure you're code as below:

available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(", ".join(sundaes))
