How to concatenate items in a list to a single string?

Question

Is there a simpler way to concatenate string items in a list into a single string? Can I use the str.join() function?

E.g. this is the input [\'t

Answer 1

Without .join() method you can use this method:

my_list=["this","is","a","sentence"]

concenated_string=""
for string in range(len(my_list)):
    if string == len(my_list)-1:
        concenated_string+=my_list[string]
    else:
        concenated_string+=f'{my_list[string]}-'
print([concenated_string])
    >>> ['this-is-a-sentence']

So, range based for loop in this example , when the python reach the last word of your list, it should'nt add "-" to your concenated_string. If its not last word of your string always append "-" string to your concenated_string variable.
