sorry everyone, I figured it out on my own ;)

oops, I forgot to add the s = 1 and s=0 lines to the example code i posted...
OK, To save us guessing, why don't you post it with the s=1/0 and also the actual output pattern you get?
Seeing the error is a very powerful technique for guessing what may be at fault. A second hand description is never as precise.

I've got a silly question. ####################### P1 = "prefix1" P2 = "prefix2"
def my_func(list, items): s = 0 out = "" for i in range(len(list)): if s == 0: p = P1 s = 1 else: p = P2 s = 0 for j in range(len(items)): out += p +items[j] return out ########################
If my input was: list = ["car list 1","car list 2"] items = ["torino","mustang","elantra"]
for output I get: prefix1torinoprefix1mustangprefix1elantraprefix1torinoprefix1mustangprefix1elantra
when I expect: prefix1torinoprefix1mustangprefix1elantra*prefix2*torino*prefix2*mustang*prefix2*elantra
