convert a list to a string?

[Anthony Liu]

Suppose I have a list

myList = ["this", "is", "a", "sample", "list"]

If I don't want to iterate through it and concatenate
the list elements, how do I easily convert it to a
string like

"this is a sample list"

str(myList) will only give you things like

"["this", "is", "a", "sample", "list"]"

That is not what I want.

You want:

myList = ["this", "is", "a", "sample", "list"]
" ".join (myList)

'this is a sample list'
