I have an arbitrary ragged nested list-of-lists (a tree) like



A = a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n;


Its structure is given by the rules



B = Flatten[MapIndexed[#2 -> #1 &, A, -1]]



1, 1 -> a, 1, 2 -> b, 2, 1 -> c, 2, 2 -> d, 3, 1, 1, 1 -> e, 3, 1, 1, 2 -> f, 3, 1, 1, 3 -> g, 3, 1, 1, 4 -> h, 3, 1, 1, 5 -> i, 3, 1, 2, 1 -> j, 3, 1, 2, 2 -> k, 3, 1, 2, 3 -> l, 3, 2 -> m, 4 -> n




How can I invert this operation? How can I construct A solely from the information given in B?
