Delimit a slice:

```go-html-template
{{ $s := slice "b" "a" "c" }}
{{ delimit $s ", " }} → "b, a, c"
{{ delimit $s ", " " and "}} → "b, a and c"
```

Delimit a map:

{{% note %}}
The `delimit` function sorts maps by key, returning the values.
{{% /note %}}

```go-html-template
{{ $m := dict "b" 2 "a" 1 "c" 3 }}
{{ delimit $m ", " }} → "1, 2, 3"
{{ delimit $m ", " " and "}} → "1, 2 and 3"
```
