\$\begingroup\$ Hmm ... that's strange. Guess I'll have to roll back to the longer solution, so. Thank, @Neil. \$\endgroup\$

\$\begingroup\$ I think you could change . to [^], which would still leave it a byte shorter than map/join? \$\endgroup\$

\$\begingroup\$ Just a heads up, the join() in your previous answer was unnecessary given the specification for ;#, and you can also declare that the input for your function is an array of characters, though the second suggestion is a bit of a stretch. Either way, that brings you down to at most 48 bytes. \$\endgroup\$
