math.squeeze(x)
```

### Parameters

## Examples

```js
math.squeeze([3])           // returns 3
math.squeeze([[3]])         // returns 3

const A = math.zeros(3, 1)    // returns [[0], [0], [0]] (size 3x1)
math.squeeze(A)             // returns [0, 0, 0] (size 3)

const B = math.zeros(1, 3)    // returns [[0, 0, 0]] (size 1x3)
math.squeeze(B)             // returns [0, 0, 0] (size 3)

// only inner and outer dimensions are removed
const C = math.zeros(2, 1, 3) // returns [[[0, 0, 0]], [[0, 0, 0]]] (size 2x1x3)
math.squeeze(C)             // returns [[[0, 0, 0]], [[0, 0, 0]]] (size 2x1x3)
