Flatten deeply in Python
Python interview exercise on Lists & Comprehensions, difficulty 2 of 3. Solve it in the editor beside a worked example; the tests run the moment you do.
Write flatten_deep(items) that flattens lists nested to any depth. Only lists are opened up: a string stays one item, even though it is iterable.
Each exercise pairs a worked example with a twin problem to solve in a real editor; the tests run the moment you do. Progress is saved in your browser, and in your account if you sign in.
