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

1. Combine the sundaes list into a new string, joining them with a comma and a space (", ").
To combine sundaes into a new new string, use the join method on the separator string "," with the sundaes list as the argument:
", ".join(sundaes)
2. Use that string with a .format() on our existing menu variable and replace the current value of menu.
Using the .format() method on the menu string, with the joined string from above as the argument:
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(", ".join(sundaes))
