[Tutor] Convert a list to a group of separated strings

[Juan Christian]

Let's say I have the following list: my_list = ['76561198048214059',
'76561198065852182', '76561198067017670', '76561198077080978',
'76561198077257977', '7656119807971
7745', '76561198088368223', '76561198144945778']

and I have a function with the following signature: def
fetch_users(*steamids)

Usage: fetch_users("76561198048214059", "76561198065852182",
"76561198067017670", [...])


Inside the 'fetch_users' function I have a call to the API using this
approach: req = urllib.request.urlopen('API_URL_HERE&steamids=' +
','.join(steamids))

This way I call the API with the following URL (example):

API_URL_HERE&steamids=76561198048214059,76561198065852182

And everything works.

The problem is that when I give the 'my_list' directly to 'fetch_users'
function it gives me "TypeError: sequence item 0: expected str instance,
list found".

How can I convert it to something like "fetch_users("76561198048214059",
"76561198065852182", "76561198067017670", [...])"

I tried with " ''.join(my_list) " but didn't work. I think it's a very
simple question but I'm struggling to find the answer.
