371 PointsReplacing Placeholders
Hey, am really stuck on this part. 'Then reassign the menu variable to use the existing variable and .format() to replace the placeholder with the new string in display_menu. If you're really brave, you can even accomplish this all on the same line where menu is currently being set.'
Not too fussed about having to do it on the same line but just not sure how to write it.
Thanks in advance!!
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = 'Our available flavors are: {}.'.format(','.join(sundaes)
display_menu = 'Our available flavors are: {}.'.format(', '.join(sundaes))
