I have a list like this:
[["str1","str2"],["str3","str4"],["str5","str6"]]
And I need to convert it to
["str1", "str2", "str3", "str4", "str5", "str6"]
How do I do this?
The problem is that I'm dealing with lists of strings, so when I do
lists:flatten([["str1","str2"],["str3","str4"],["str5","str6"]])
I get
"str1str2str3str4str5str6"
However, if the elements of the original list where just atoms, then lists:flatten would have given me what I needed. How do I achieve the same with strings?
