How to do the following in more stylish/short way?

for(i=container.begin(); i!=container.end(); ++i) {
    if (i!=container.begin()) {
        cout << ", ";
    }
    cout << *i;
    if (i==container.end()) {
        cout << "!" << endl; 
    }
}

Solutions like foreach are acceptable (actions on first and last elements need to be configurable, though).
