state_names = ["Alabama","California","Oklahoma","Florida] vowels = list('aeiou') # vowels will return ["a","e","i","o","u"] output = []
for state in state_names:
state_list = list(state.lower()) #what value sate_list will return
for vowel in vowels:
while True:
try:
state_list.remove(vowel)
except:
break
output.append('',join(state_list).capitalize())
print(output)
Can anybody tell me why do we have to join the state_list in the end? output.append('',join(state_list).capitalize())

16,594 PointsI think it's just how you might want it to look. A list printed looks like this:
state_names = ["Alabama","California","Oklahoma","Florida]
# .join() turns it into a string, kinda looks nicer for reading. Although there are # times you might need data to be either a string or a list to do certain things to # it. But I don't think that is happening here.
" ".join(state_names)
'Alabama California Oklahoma Florida'
