Concatenating cities and states

In the previous exercise, you used the + operator to combine two columns into one. This time you need to do the same, but using the CONCAT() function.

To get this format for the concatenation: 'Las Vegas, Nevada', you will need to use the CASE expression in case the state column has NULL values.
