can someone explain the last sentence of the question. It does not quite make sense
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(sundaes)
new_str = sundaes.join(', ')
menu = new_str.format(menu)

It looks like you've got the general idea here, but your code has the wrong order of input for .join() and .format(); you've also pre-formatted the menu variable on your third line, and are trying to format it again on your last line. If you switch the order of input and remove that first format, your code will pass the Challenge.
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(';')
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."
new_str = ', '.join(sundaes)
menu = menu.format(new_str)
Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other questions about this!
