Comma Code, Automate the Boring Stuff with Python, Help Needed
$begingroup$
I have little experience with coding, and I have this problem solving the Comma Code problem in chapter 4 of the book.
Instructions: Write a function that take a list value as an argument and returns a string with all the items separated by a command a space, with and inserted before the last item. For example, passing the previous spam list to the function would return 'apples, bananas, tofu, and cats'. But your function should be able to work with any list value passed to it.
Other peoples solution: Comma Code (project from "Automate the Boring Stuff with Python")
How do I transition from this to the function. Suggestions please!
myList =
while True:
print('Enter list:')
ourList = input()
if ourList == "":
break
myList = myList + [ourList]
print(myList)
python
