Task

Write a function to flatten the nesting in an arbitrary list of values.

Your program should work on the equivalent of this list:

  [[1], 2, [[3, 4], 5], [[[]]], [[[6]]], 7, 8, []]

Where the correct result would be the list:

   [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

a = [[1], 2, [[3, 4], 5], [[[]]], [[[6]]], 7, 8, []];
a.flatten(1); // answers [ 1, 2, [ 3, 4 ], 5, [ [  ] ], [ [ 6 ] ], 7, 8 ]
a.flat; // answers [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ]
