I think my code for finishing this exercise is correct. I've no idea why is it still showing me an error.

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

Hi Abna,

The correct code can be written all on one line for the menu variable. Here is the code below:

menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(', '.join(sundaes))

Hope this helps
