How do I handle non-list elements when flattening a nested structure?

When flattening a nested structure, you can check the type of each element. If it's a list, you can recursively flatten it; if it's a non-list element, you can simply add it to the result.

Can you give me an example of flattening a structure with both lists and non-list elements?

Sure! For example, if you have [{a: 1}, [2, 3], 4], the flattened result would be [1, 2, 3, 4].

What if the non-list elements are objects?

In that case, you can decide how to handle the objects. You might want to extract specific properties or convert them to a different format.

Is there a library in Python that can help with this?

Yes, libraries like pandas or numpy can help with flattening data structures, especially if you're working with data frames or arrays.
