C# scripting - How to output a dynamically created list of strings?

I would like to output a list (C# Scripting), which contains elements of objects' names. Since this list is generating dynamacally, I just get a output in every single line. This is my code: 

public static List<string> myList= new List<string>();
//...
public static void myMethod (Renderer[] renderers) {
        foreach (var renderer in renderers) {
            if (IsVisible(renderer)) {
                //print (renderer.name + " is visible!");
                myList.Add (renderer.name);
            }
            print (myList);
        }
        myList.Clear ();
        print ("--");
       }

The output is like System.Collections.Generic.List'1[System.String]in every line. After a reseach I also tried 

foreach (var item in myList) {
      print (item);
}

This method prints every object in a single line. But I want all names of the objects to be together in one line until there will be "--" printed. How can I realize it? Thanks!

Example:

output now: 

object0 
object1
object2
etc.

what I want to achive: object0, object1, object2, etc.

If your output coming as a string then u have to take one string variable and concatenate all items with "--" into the variable.

string temp = string.Empty;
foreach(var item in items)
{
   temp += item + "--";
}

print(temp)

You can print all the names of visible renderers with the following code using String.Join and LINQ

public static void myMethod(Renderer[] renderers)
{
    print(string.Join(",", renderers.Where(IsVisible).Select(r => r.name)));
    print("--");
}

This should output: 

object1,object2,object3
--

You can use string.Joinfor this.

string itemsInOneLine = string.Join(", ", myList);
print(itemsInOneLine);

For further information have a look at the MSDN string.Join page.

You can use String.Join method. It recevies the separator and an array of strings as parameters. For example:

print(String.Join(", ", myList.ToArray());
