2,169 PointsI'm stuck on the banana.py challenge. I tried an approach in the Shell that works fine but am getting errors in editor.
Here's what I did:
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white" sundaes = available.split(";") menu = "Our available flavors are: {}." flavors = ", ".join(sundaes) menu.format(flavors)
The error states "Didn't find the right number of sundaes and commas".
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
flavors = ", ".join(sundaes)
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."
menu.format(flavors)

template string and the .format()
method on the same line. Joining your two last lines solves the problem:
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
flavors = ", ".join(sundaes)
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(flavors)
