Split and join

Please check, Not sure where I am wrong

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

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

You have everything correct except the variable names that it asks you to use. Swap menu and display_menu around so that the final results are held in menu rather than display_menu, and your code will pass.
