这里有大量的好代码，但我只是想以几何形式展示，这样你就能更好地理解代码逻辑。以下是我的处理方法。

首先，不要把这和换位相混淆，换位是很容易的。

基本的想法是把它当作层，我们一次旋转一个层。

假设我们有一辆4x4

1   2   3   4
5   6   7   8
9   10  11  12
13  14  15  16

当我们顺时针旋转90度，我们得到

13  9   5   1
14  10  6   2   
15  11  7   3
16  12  8   4

我们来分解它，首先旋转这四个角

1           4


13          16

然后我们旋转下面这个有点歪斜的菱形

    2
            8
9       
        15

然后是第二个斜菱形

        3
5           
            12
    14

这就搞定了外缘基本上我们一次做一个壳层直到

最后是中间的方块(如果是奇数则是最后一个不动的元素)

6   7
10  11

现在我们来算出每一层的指标，假设我们总是在最外层工作，我们正在做

[0,0] -> [0,n-1], [0,n-1] -> [n-1,n-1], [n-1,n-1] -> [n-1,0], and [n-1,0] -> [0,0]
[0,1] -> [1,n-1], [1,n-2] -> [n-1,n-2], [n-1,n-2] -> [n-2,0], and [n-2,0] -> [0,1]
[0,2] -> [2,n-2], [2,n-2] -> [n-1,n-3], [n-1,n-3] -> [n-3,0], and [n-3,0] -> [0,2]

等等等等 直到我们走到边缘的一半

所以总的来说模式是

[0,i] -> [i,n-i], [i,n-i] -> [n-1,n-(i+1)], [n-1,n-(i+1)] -> [n-(i+1),0], and [n-(i+1),0] to [0,i]

我只用一个循环就能做到。时间复杂度看起来像O(K)其中K是数组中的所有元素。 下面是我用JavaScript做的:

首先，我们用一个数组来表示n^2矩阵。然后，像这样迭代它:

/**
 * Rotates matrix 90 degrees clockwise
 * @param arr: the source array
 * @param n: the array side (array is square n^2)
 */
function rotate (arr, n) {
  var rotated = [], indexes = []

  for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
    if (i < n)
      indexes[i] = i * n + (n - 1)
    else
      indexes[i] = indexes[i - n] - 1

    rotated[indexes[i]] = arr[i]
  }
  return rotated
}

基本上，我们转换源数组下标:

[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8] => [2,5,8,1,4,7,0,3 6]

然后，使用这个转换后的索引数组，我们将实际值放在最终旋转的数组中。

下面是一些测试用例:

//n=3
rotate([
  1, 2, 3,
  4, 5, 6,
  7, 8, 9], 3))

//result:
[7, 4, 1,
 8, 5, 2,
 9, 6, 3]


//n=4
rotate([
  1,  2,  3,  4,
  5,  6,  7,  8,
  9,  10, 11, 12,
  13, 14, 15, 16], 4))

//result:
[13,  9,  5,  1,
 14, 10,  6,  2,
 15, 11,  7,  3,
 16, 12,  8,  4]


//n=5
rotate([
  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,
  6,  7,  8,  9,  10,
  11, 12, 13, 14, 15,
  16, 17, 18, 19, 20,
  21, 22, 23, 24, 25], 5))

//result:
[21, 16, 11,  6,  1, 
 22, 17, 12,  7,  2, 
 23, 18, 13,  8,  3, 
 24, 19, 14,  9,  4, 
 25, 20, 15, 10,  5]

正如我在上一篇文章中所说的，这里有一些c#代码，可以为任何大小的矩阵实现O(1)矩阵旋转。为了简洁性和可读性，没有错误检查或范围检查。代码:

static void Main (string [] args)
{
  int [,]
    //  create an arbitrary matrix
    m = {{0, 1}, {2, 3}, {4, 5}};

  Matrix
    //  create wrappers for the data
    m1 = new Matrix (m),
    m2 = new Matrix (m),
    m3 = new Matrix (m);

  //  rotate the matricies in various ways - all are O(1)
  m1.RotateClockwise90 ();
  m2.Rotate180 ();
  m3.RotateAnitclockwise90 ();

  //  output the result of transforms
  System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine (m1.ToString ());
  System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine (m2.ToString ());
  System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine (m3.ToString ());
}

class Matrix
{
  enum Rotation
  {
    None,
    Clockwise90,
    Clockwise180,
    Clockwise270
  }

  public Matrix (int [,] matrix)
  {
    m_matrix = matrix;
    m_rotation = Rotation.None;
  }

  //  the transformation routines
  public void RotateClockwise90 ()
  {
    m_rotation = (Rotation) (((int) m_rotation + 1) & 3);
  }

  public void Rotate180 ()
  {
    m_rotation = (Rotation) (((int) m_rotation + 2) & 3);
  }

  public void RotateAnitclockwise90 ()
  {
    m_rotation = (Rotation) (((int) m_rotation + 3) & 3);
  }

  //  accessor property to make class look like a two dimensional array
  public int this [int row, int column]
  {
    get
    {
      int
        value = 0;

      switch (m_rotation)
      {
      case Rotation.None:
        value = m_matrix [row, column];
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise90:
        value = m_matrix [m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0) - column, row];
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise180:
        value = m_matrix [m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0) - row, m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1) - column];
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise270:
        value = m_matrix [column, m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1) - row];
        break;
      }

      return value;
    }

    set
    {
      switch (m_rotation)
      {
      case Rotation.None:
        m_matrix [row, column] = value;
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise90:
        m_matrix [m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0) - column, row] = value;
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise180:
        m_matrix [m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0) - row, m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1) - column] = value;
        break;

      case Rotation.Clockwise270:
        m_matrix [column, m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1) - row] = value;
        break;
      }
    }
  }

  //  creates a string with the matrix values
  public override string ToString ()
  {
    int
      num_rows = 0,
      num_columns = 0;

    switch (m_rotation)
    {
    case Rotation.None:
    case Rotation.Clockwise180:
      num_rows = m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0);
      num_columns = m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1);
      break;

    case Rotation.Clockwise90:
    case Rotation.Clockwise270:
      num_rows = m_matrix.GetUpperBound (1);
      num_columns = m_matrix.GetUpperBound (0);
      break;
    }

    StringBuilder
      output = new StringBuilder ();

    output.Append ("{");

    for (int row = 0 ; row <= num_rows ; ++row)
    {
      if (row != 0)
      {
        output.Append (", ");
      }

      output.Append ("{");

      for (int column = 0 ; column <= num_columns ; ++column)
      {
        if (column != 0)
        {
          output.Append (", ");
        }

        output.Append (this [row, column].ToString ());
      }

      output.Append ("}");
    }

    output.Append ("}");

    return output.ToString ();
  }

  int [,]
    //  the original matrix
    m_matrix;

  Rotation
    //  the current view of the matrix
    m_rotation;
}

好的，我把手举起来，当旋转时，它实际上不会对原始数组做任何修改。但是，在面向对象系统中，只要对象看起来像是被旋转到类的客户端，这就无关紧要了。目前，Matrix类使用对原始数组数据的引用，因此改变m1的任何值也将改变m2和m3。对构造函数稍加更改，创建一个新数组并将值复制到该数组中，就可以将其整理出来。

#转置是Ruby的Array类的标准方法，因此:

% irb
irb(main):001:0> m = [[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], [9, 0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5, 6]]
=> [[1, 2, 3, 4], [5, 6, 7, 8], [9, 0, 1, 2], [3, 4, 5, 6]] 
irb(main):002:0> m.reverse.transpose
=> [[3, 9, 5, 1], [4, 0, 6, 2], [5, 1, 7, 3], [6, 2, 8, 4]]

实现是一个用c写的n^2转置函数，你可以在这里看到: http://www.ruby-doc.org/core-1.9.3/Array.html#method-i-transpose 通过选择“点击切换源”旁边的“转置”。

我记得比O(n^2)的解更好，但只适用于特殊构造的矩阵(如稀疏矩阵)

我的旋转版本:

void rotate_matrix(int *matrix, int size)
{

int result[size*size];

    for (int i = 0; i < size; ++i)
        for (int j = 0; j < size; ++j)
            result[(size - 1 - i) + j*size] = matrix[i*size+j];

    for (int i = 0; i < size*size; ++i)
        matrix[i] = result[i];
}

在其中，我们将最后一列改为第一行，以此类推。这可能不是最理想的，但对于理解来说是清楚的。

在原地顺时针90度旋转使用矢量矢量..

 #include<iostream>
 #include<vector>
 #include<algorithm>
 using namespace std;
 //Rotate a Matrix by 90 degrees
void rotateMatrix(vector<vector<int> > &matrix){
   int n=matrix.size();
   for(int i=0;i<n;i++){
    for(int j=i+1;j<n;j++){
        swap(matrix[i][j],matrix[j][i]);
    }
 }
     for(int i=0;i<n;i++){
        reverse(matrix[i].begin(),matrix[i].end());
       }
   }

    int main(){

   int n;
   cout<<"enter the size of the matrix:"<<endl;
     while (cin >> n) {
    vector< vector<int> > m;
      cout<<"enter the elements"<<endl;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        m.push_back(vector<int>(n));
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++)
            scanf("%d", &m[i][j]);
    }
      cout<<"the rotated matrix is:"<<endl;
      rotateMatrix(m);
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++)
            cout << m[i][j] << ' ';
        cout << endl;
    }
   }
   return 0;
 }
