-Program to join a list of strings with a separator

-    Additional test case with a different separator:
-    >>> join("-", ["apple", "banana", "cherry"])
-    'apple-banana-cherry'
+    :return: A single string with elements joined by the separator.
+
+    :raises Exception: If any element in the list is not a string.
