flatten_array.rb

# banana = [1,'Peter', nil,[2,3,nil,4],'Sabine',[nil],5]
# olives = [[nil, nil, nil],'Paula','Joyce',[1,2,3,4,[6,6,nil,78],nil]]

def flatten_array(array)
   new_array = array.flatten.compact
end

# flatten_array(banana)
# flatten_array(olives)


##### Pseudocode exercise:
# When provided an array that is:
# - nested, 
# - containing strings or integers or both, 
# - AND with nil values
# -->  my method flatten_array needs to clear all the nested arrays, 
#  maintain the values of the cleared nested arrays into one flat array.
#  This method also needs to simultaneously clear/delete all the 'nil' values from the flatten array.
#  The output needs to be a flatten array with the original values.
