Sebastian,

How do you intend to use the output? It is not proper Mathematica syntax
standing alone.

expr = Flatten[Table[Subscript[x, i, j],
   {i, 1, 4}, {j, 1, 4}]];

You can insert the arguments in another function f by

f @@ expr

You can insert the list as arguments with other arguments by

f[a, b, Sequence @@ expr]

You could display them with a Print statement by

{#, ", "} & /@ expr // Flatten // Drop[#, -1] &
Print @@ %

Hello everyone in the group,

I need to know a way to remove the outer brakets that encapsulate a
list generated by the Table function.

i.e:

Flatten[Table[Subscript[x, i, j],
   {i, 1, 4}, {j, 1, 4}]]

Generates:

{Subscript[x, 1, 1], Subscript[x, 1, 2], <<12>>   Subscript[x, 4, 3],
  Subscript[x, 4, 4]}

And I need a function that flattens the output completely removing the
outer brakets like giving the following as an output:

Subscript[x, 1, 1], Subscript[x, 1, 2], <<12>>   Subscript[x, 4, 3],
  Subscript[x, 4, 4]

Has anyone done it? or know how to do it?

Thanks in advance for any help you may provide,

Sebastian Cohen S
