Process
I completed a quick interview over CollabEdit and was asked several basic programming questions.
The interviewer was very bad at phrasing the questions and misled me to believe the flattened array needed to be in some sorted order. His solution did not even follow the question he had asked me.
Questions
How do you flatten an arbitrarily deep nesting of arrays?
