+#### maybeRemoveSingletonDimensions( x, writable )
+
+Removes singleton dimensions from an input ndarray if and only if it contains singleton dimensions.
+
+<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->
+
+```javascript
+var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
+
+// Create a 1x2x2 ndarray:
+var x = array( [ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ] ] );
+// returns <ndarray>[ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ] ]
+
+// Remove singleton dimensions:
+var y = maybeRemoveSingletonDimensions( x, false );
+// returns <ndarray>[ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ]
+```
+
+The function accepts the following arguments:
+
+-   **x**: input ndarray.
+-   **writable**: boolean indicating whether a returned ndarray should be writable.

+
+## Notes
+
+-   The `writable` parameter **only** applies when the function returns a new ndarray instance (i.e., when the input ndarray contains singleton dimensions). When the input ndarray does not contain singleton dimensions, the function returns the input ndarray unchanged, and the `writable` parameter is ignored.
+-   The function **only** returns a new ndarray instance if the input ndarray contains singleton dimensions. Otherwise, the input ndarray is returned unchanged.
