Van Ly added the comment:

The improvement on the original (doc v.2.7.5) lies in the removal of the 
repeated 'iterable' in the first sentence, and I have also shortened it to 
deliver only what is returned by the builtin method which was what I wanted to 
know without knowing how. I wrote up this reformulation as I would have like to 
read it. I believe the word "concatenation" is off putting to beginners without 
a formal background or wanting to acquire that, and there are people like me 
who prefer plain and simple words. "concatenation" could be used in a footnote 
to guide readers to more depth if that is something they want to have. The 
inline usage example serves to confirm what has been described/claimed.

--original: doc v.2.7.5

str.join(iterable)

Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in the iterable 
iterable. The separator between elements is the string providing this method.
