Your curiosity served you well. If you missed this point, the whole thing is 
kinda pointless. ;-)

'join' is the answer. You 'join' the list together into a string after you've 
put the list together.

Change the line:
	return w
to:
	return "".join(w)

This is a demonstration on how join works:
>>> l = ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D']
>>> " - ".join(l)
'A - B - C - D'
>>> "".join(l)
'ABCD'
