你可以通过3个简单步骤做到这一点:

1)假设我们有一个矩阵

   1 2 3
   4 5 6
   7 8 9

2)求矩阵的转置

   1 4 7
   2 5 8
   3 6 9

3)交换行得到旋转矩阵

   3 6 9
   2 5 8
   1 4 7

Java源代码:

public class MyClass {

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Demo obj = new Demo();
        /*initial matrix to rotate*/
        int[][] matrix = { { 1, 2, 3 }, { 4, 5, 6 }, { 7, 8, 9 } };
        int[][] transpose = new int[3][3]; // matrix to store transpose

        obj.display(matrix);              // initial matrix

        obj.rotate(matrix, transpose);    // call rotate method
        System.out.println();
        obj.display(transpose);           // display the rotated matix
    }
}

class Demo {   
    public void rotate(int[][] mat, int[][] tran) {

        /* First take the transpose of the matrix */
        for (int i = 0; i < mat.length; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < mat.length; j++) {
                tran[i][j] = mat[j][i]; 
            }
        }

        /*
         * Interchange the rows of the transpose matrix to get rotated
         * matrix
         */
        for (int i = 0, j = tran.length - 1; i != j; i++, j--) {
            for (int k = 0; k < tran.length; k++) {
                swap(i, k, j, k, tran);
            }
        }
    }

    public void swap(int a, int b, int c, int d, int[][] arr) {
        int temp = arr[a][b];
        arr[a][b] = arr[c][d];
        arr[c][d] = temp;    
    }

    /* Method to display the matrix */
    public void display(int[][] arr) {
        for (int i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < arr.length; j++) {
                System.out.print(arr[i][j] + " ");
            }
            System.out.println();
        }
    }
}

输出:

1 2 3 
4 5 6 
7 8 9 

3 6 9 
2 5 8 
1 4 7 

在JavaScript中实现dimple的+90伪代码(例如转置然后反转每一行):

function rotate90(a){
  // transpose from http://www.codesuck.com/2012/02/transpose-javascript-array-in-one-line.html
  a = Object.keys(a[0]).map(function (c) { return a.map(function (r) { return r[c]; }); });
  // row reverse
  for (i in a){
    a[i] = a[i].reverse();
  }
  return a;
}

这是我对矩阵90度旋转的尝试，这是c中的2步解决方案，首先转置矩阵，然后交换cols。

#define ROWS        5
#define COLS        5

void print_matrix_b(int B[][COLS], int rows, int cols) 
{
    for (int i = 0; i <= rows; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j <=cols; j++) {
            printf("%d ", B[i][j]);
        }
        printf("\n");
    }
}

void swap_columns(int B[][COLS], int l, int r, int rows)
{
    int tmp;
    for (int i = 0; i <= rows; i++) {
        tmp = B[i][l];
        B[i][l] = B[i][r];
        B[i][r] = tmp;
    }
}


void matrix_2d_rotation(int B[][COLS], int rows, int cols)
{
    int tmp;
    // Transpose the matrix first
    for (int i = 0; i <= rows; i++) {
        for (int j = i; j <=cols; j++) {
            tmp = B[i][j];
            B[i][j] = B[j][i];
            B[j][i] = tmp;
        }
    }
    // Swap the first and last col and continue until
    // the middle.
    for (int i = 0; i < (cols / 2); i++)
        swap_columns(B, i, cols - i, rows);
}



int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    int B[ROWS][COLS] = { 
                  {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}
                        };

    matrix_2d_rotation(B, ROWS - 1, COLS - 1);

    print_matrix_b(B, ROWS - 1, COLS -1);
    return 0;
}

O(1)内存算法:

旋转最外层的数据，然后你可以得到以下结果: [3] [9] [5] [1] [4] [6] [7] [2] [5] [0] [1] [3] [6] [2] [8] [4]

做这个旋转，我们知道

    dest[j][n-1-i] = src[i][j]

观察下图: A (0,0) -> A (0,3) A (0,3) -> A (3,3) A (3,3) -> A (3,0) A (3,0) -> A (0,0)

因此它是一个圆，你可以在一个循环中旋转N个元素。做这个N-1循环，然后你可以旋转最外层的元素。

对于2X2，内部也是一样的问题。

因此，我们可以得出如下结论:

function rotate(array, N)
{
    Rotate outer-most data
    rotate a new array with N-2 or you can do the similar action following step1
}

这是一个空间旋转方法，由java编写，只适用于正方形。对于非正方形的2d数组，无论如何都必须创建新数组。

private void rotateInSpace(int[][] arr) {
    int z = arr.length;
    for (int i = 0; i < z / 2; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < (z / 2 + z % 2); j++) {
            int x = i, y = j;
            int temp = arr[x][y];
            for (int k = 0; k < 4; k++) {
                int temptemp = arr[y][z - x - 1];
                arr[y][z - x - 1] = temp;
                temp = temptemp;

                int tempX = y;
                y = z - x - 1;
                x = tempX;
            }
        }
    }
}

通过创建新数组旋转任何大小的2d数组的代码:

private int[][] rotate(int[][] arr) {
    int width = arr[0].length;
    int depth = arr.length;
    int[][] re = new int[width][depth];
    for (int i = 0; i < depth; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < width; j++) {
            re[j][depth - i - 1] = arr[i][j];
        }
    }
    return re;
}

时间- O(N)，空间- O(1)

public void rotate(int[][] matrix) {
    int n = matrix.length;
    for (int i = 0; i < n / 2; i++) {
        int last = n - 1 - i;
        for (int j = i; j < last; j++) {
            int top = matrix[i][j];
            matrix[i][j] = matrix[last - j][i];
            matrix[last - j][i] = matrix[last][last - j];
            matrix[last][last - j] = matrix[j][last];
            matrix[j][last] = top;
        }
    }
}
