The output should be like, if a table is consists of 3 levels. the level 2 should be at the top of level 1 then level 3 should be at the bottom of level 2.
The output will be:
level2
level3
level1
If there will be a table greater than the 3rd level or the deepest level, it will be outputted at the bottom of the 3rd level.
Example
level2
level3
level4
level5
level6
level7
level8
level1
Hope I explained it well.
