I need to know the difference between a comma splice and a run-on.

A comma splice is when you have two commas in a row, while a run-on is when you have more than two commas in a row. For example, "I like to eat, apples." This would be considered a comma splice because there are two commas in a row. However, if I said, "I like to eat, apples, bananas, and oranges," this would be considered a run-on because there are three commas in a row.
