Answer 1

This code works no matter what data types are in the lists, boolean, int, string, float, etc.

def commaCode(spam):
    count = 0
    max_count = len(spam) - 1

    for x in range(len(spam)):
        if count < max_count:
            print(str(spam[count]) + ', ', end='')
            count += 1
        else:
            print('and ' + str(spam[max_count]))

spam1 = ['cat', 'bananas', 'tofu', 'cats']
spam2 = [23, '', True, 'cats']
spam3 = []

commaCode(spam1)
commaCode(spam2)
commaCode(spam3)
