+    Create nditers for use in nested loops
+
+    Create a tuple of `nditer` objects which iterate in nested loops over
+    different axes of the op argument. The first iterator is used in the
+    outermost loop, the last in the innermost loop. Advancing one will change
+    the subsequent iterators to point at its new element.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    op : ndarray or sequence of array_like
+        The array(s) to iterate over.
+
+    axes : list of list of int
+        Each item is used as an "op_axes" argument to an nditer
+
+    flags, op_flags, op_dtypes, order, casting, buffersize (optional)
+        See `nditer` parameters of the same name
+
+    Returns
+    -------
+    iters : tuple of nditer
+        An nditer for each item in `axes`, outermost first
+
+    See Also
+    --------
+    nditer
+
+    Examples
+    --------
+
+    Basic usage. Note how y is the "flattened" version of
+    [a[:, 0, :], a[:, 1, 0], a[:, 2, :]] since we specified
+    the first iter's axes as [1]
+
+    >>> a = np.arange(12).reshape(2, 3, 2)
+    >>> i, j = np.nested_iters(a, [[1], [0, 2]], flags=["multi_index"])
+    >>> for x in i:
+    ...      print(i.multi_index)
+    ...      for y in j:
+    ...          print('', j.multi_index, y)
