/*! Suppose you have an iterator range and suppose further that

 *  define iterator ranges themselves (accessible through
 *  some \c begin and \c end functions).
 *  \e Flattening the iterator range means to turn it into one
 *  iterator range whose values are the values of the containers
 *  in the original range.
 *  For example, a range of lists (1,2),(3),(4,5,6) can be
 *  flattened into a range 1,2,3,4,5,6
 *
 *  The class templates \c Flattening_iterator and
 *  \c Flattening_const_iterator implement this flattening.
 *  So far, only the \c const version has been implemented,
 *  i.e. the values in the flattened range are read-only.
 *
 *  But what about an iterator range whose values are lists of
 *  vectors of vectors of ... and so on?
 *  Yes, it is possible to flatten such nested containers, too,
 *  by recursive application of \c Flattening*_iterator.
 *  The class templates \c Recursive_flattening and
 *  \c Recursive_const_flattening offer the necessary
 *  typedefs and conversions.
 *  So far, only the \c const version has been implemented.

    \brief Recursive application of \c Flattening_const_iterator

    An instance \c Recursive_const_flattening<level,InputIterator>
    of this class template contains a typedef \c Recursive_flattening_iterator.
    This is a \c level -fold nested instance of
    \c Flattening_const_iterator, where \c level can be any
    non-negative integer. At each nesting level, begin and end
    functors are supplied to \c Flattening_const_iterator
    which assume that their arguments have a
    \c const_iterator typedef and \c begin() and \c end()
    member functions in the style of the STL.

    The functor <tt>Flatten()(it)</tt> converts an \c InputIterator \c it
    to a \c Recursive_flattening_iterator. Converting each endpoint
    of an iterator range [first,beyond) yields an iterator range
    in which \c level levels of packing into containers have been
    unpacked. (In particular, the case \c level==0 is permissible
    and a no-op.)

    To get a \c const_iterator out of a container \c c of type \c C
    which is not \c const itself, one can use syntax like
    <tt>const_cast<const C&>(c).begin())</tt>. This may sometimes
    be necessary in conjunction with \c Recursive_const_flattening.
