Discussion
In this example, an array of three ranges is flattened so that the elements of each range can be iterated in turn.
let ranges = [0..<3, 8..<10, 15..<17]
// A for-in loop over 'ranges' accesses each range:
for range in ranges {
print(range)
}
// Prints "0..<3"
// Prints "8..<10"
// Prints "15..<17"
// Use 'joined()' to access each element of each range:
for index in ranges.joined() {
print(index, terminator: " ")
}
// Prints: "0 1 2 8 9 15 16"
