flatten

Returns DataFrame without column groupings under selected columns.

flatten  [ { columns } ]

Columns will keep their original names after flattening. Potential column name clashes are resolved by adding minimal possible name prefix from ancestor columns.

df.flatten { name }

// name.firstName -> firstName
