Hi, I've been trying to figure out task 3 for a long time now and I can't seem to figure it out. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."

Treehouse TeacherYou're not the only one to get stuck on this! In fact, I answered this exact question not long ago. Take a look at the code you need here: https://teamtreehouse.com/community/splitting-and-joining-challenge-task-3-of-3-not-working

available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(sundaes)
Also, you have to join it back with ", " to finish it off. Complete code:
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"
sundaes = available.split(";")
menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(sundaes.join(", "))
