Python Python Basics (2015) Python Data Types Use .split() and .join()

.join

Alright, let's finish making our menu. Combine the sundaes list into a new string, joining them with a comma and a space (", "). Use that string with a .format() on our existing menu variable and replace the current value of menu.

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

1 Answer

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

The challenge is asking you to insert the answer into the menu variable, effectively changing the menu variable.
