All values in list will be strings. Using .join(my_list[1:]) should work. If it is an arbitrary iterable instead of a list (and thus can't be sliced), you can use .join(itertools.islice(my_iter, 1, None)) -tkc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

All values in list will be strings. Any help appreciated The tutorial covers strings and lists: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/introduction.html#strings And there is ample reference documentation for strings and lists: https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#string-methods https://docs.python.org/3/library/string.html https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#sequence-types-list-tuple-range Get to know strings and lists, and this should be a trivial problem to solve. Or just copy/paste the answers others gave and be confused the next time you need to solve a simple problem. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
