+flatten({list} [, {maxdepth}])					*flatten()*
+		Flatten {list} up to {maxdepth} levels.  Without {maxdepth}
+		the result is a |List| without nesting, as if {maxdepth} is
+		a very large number.
+		The {list} is changed in place, make a copy first if you do
+		not want that.
+							        *E964*
+		{maxdepth} means how deep in nested lists changes are made.
+		{list} is not modified when {maxdepth} is 0.
+		{maxdepth} must be positive number.
+
+		If there is an error the number zero is returned.
+
+		Example: >
+			:echo flatten([1, [2, [3, 4]], 5])
+<			[1, 2, 3, 4, 5] >
+			:echo flatten([1, [2, [3, 4]], 5], 1)
+<			[1, 2, [3, 4], 5]
