For the latest [WDC](https://community.thunkable.com/t/weekend-design-challenge/1944189/), I’m trying to scramble the letters in a word. I set up these initial blocks thinking I’d use a list of letters and shuffle the list and then convert back to text. But this result makes me pause… when I start with the list {“W”,“O”,“R”,“D”}, the label displays **W,O,R,**

But no “D”

Why is that? What am I not understanding about lists?

These blocks have the same result:

Alright, this works:
