And to add to the options you could use the formatting operator provided you know there are only 3 items, b = "%s%s%s" % tuple(a) Or for an indefinite number of strings: b = "%s" * len(a) b = b % tuple(a) So many options. However, to the OP, if you get stuck in future its best if you post the erroneous code that you have tried, then we can better see where you have gone wrong and thus provide clearer guidance on how to fix it. Its better to learn to do it your own way correctly than just to see other folks attempts .
