Python | Convert list of strings to space separated string

Given a list of strings, write a Python program to convert the given list of strings into a space-separated string.

Examples:

Input : ['geeks', 'for', 'geeks']
Output : geeks for geeks

Input : ['Python', 'Language']
Output : Python Language

Approach #1 : Python string translate()

The string translate() method returns a string where each character is mapped to its corresponding character in the translation table. The limitation of this method is that it does not work for Python 3 and above versions.

# Python3 program to Convert list of  
# strings to space separated string 
  
def convert(lst): 
      
    return str(lst).translate(None, '[],'') 
      
# Driver code 
lst = ['geeks', 'for', 'geeks'] 
print(convert(lst)) 

Output:

geeks for geeks

Approach #2 : join() function
The join() method is a string method and returns a string in which the elements of sequence have been joined by str separator. In this approach space is the separator.

# Python3 program to Convert list of  
# strings to space separated string 
  
def convert(lst): 
      
    return ' '.join(lst) 
      
# Driver code 
lst = ['geeks', 'for', 'geeks'] 
print(convert(lst)) 

Output:

geeks for geeks
