Pardis Shahabinejad ,

there may still be the issue that the final exclamation mark will not be printed. see my comments in the attached file.

Answer 2

A function returns `None` when nothing was explicitly returned to the caller. That was why you see `None` in output.

Solution:
Modify concatenate() to return <new_str>
