I have a List , x = ["apple", "banana", "carrot", "cheese", "pear"] and I will write in one line of code that when executed returns "apples bananas carrots cheeses and pears".

Very Thanks for your help!

    what did you try so far? Check `str.join()` function: https://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html#str.join – yedpodtrzitko Feb 04 '17 at 15:35

  • @Yousaf , thanks for you example , but as my knowledge about Python are very simple , for me the best answer is this: print ", ".join(x[:-2] + [" and ".join(x[-2:])]) , I Understand well the Python Logic ..... – iratxe Feb 04 '17 at 16:12
  • @Yousaf , sorry for the before answer from me... you answer it is well , because this code : print ", ".join(x[:-2] + [" and ".join(x[-2:])]) not print to ende , the word S , so , you answer it is the best! – iratxe Feb 04 '17 at 17:44

You need to use join just like octo has said

arr = ["apple", "banana", "carrot", "cheese", "pear"]
my_string = " ".join(arr)

Well you can also do:

arr = ["apple", "banana", "carrot", "cheese", "pear"]
my_string = ""
for ( n in range(len(arr) ):
  if n > 0:
    my_str += " " + arr[n]
  else:
    my_str += arr[n]

just to make my answer look different than others.

The Best answer is from Yousaf .

x = ["apple", "banana", "carrot", "cheese", "pear"]

print("\""+'s '.join(x[:-1])+"s"+" and "+(x[4])+"s"+"\"")
