I am not sure what's wrong on my codes?
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."
menu.format(", ".join(sundaes))

42,387 PointsTo correct this, I should add a dot at the end of the line.
menu = menu.format(", ".join(sundaes) + ".")

Treehouse Moderator 68,423 PointsIt's very close. In the last statement you need to replace menu with the formatted version:
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."
menu = menu.format(", ".join(sundaes))

Treehouse Moderator 68,423 PointsThis is not correct. There is already a dot at the end of the string in
menu. By adding an additional dot you get:Our available flavors are: banana split, hot fudge, cherry, malted, black and white..
