JavaScript解决方案旋转矩阵90度的地方:

function rotateBy90(m) {
  var length = m.length;
  //for each layer of the matrix
  for (var first = 0; first < length >> 1; first++) {
    var last = length - 1 - first;
    for (var i = first; i < last; i++) {
      var top = m[first][i]; //store top
      m[first][i] = m[last - i][first]; //top = left
      m[last - i][first] = m[last][last - i]; //left = bottom
      m[last][last - i] = m[i][last]; //bottom = right
      m[i][last] = top; //right = top
    }
  }
  return m;
}

    public static void rotateMatrix(int[,] matrix)
    {
        //C#, to rotate an N*N matrix in place
        int n = matrix.GetLength(0);
        int layers =  n / 2;
        int temp, temp2;

        for (int i = 0; i < layers; i++) // for a 5 * 5 matrix, layers will be 2, since at layer three there would be only one element, (2,2), and we do not need to rotate it with itself 
        {
            int offset = 0;
            while (offset < n - 2 * i - 1)
            {
                // top right <- top left 
                temp = matrix[i + offset, n - i - 1]; //top right value when offset is zero
                matrix[i + offset, n - i - 1] = matrix[i, i + offset];   

                //bottom right <- top right 
                temp2 = matrix[n - i - 1, n - i - 1 - offset]; //bottom right value when offset is zero
                matrix[n - i - 1, n - i - 1 - offset] = temp;  

                //bottom left <- bottom right 
                temp = matrix[n - i - 1 - offset, i];
                matrix[n - i - 1 - offset, i] = temp2;  

                //top left <- bottom left 
                matrix[i, i + offset] = temp; 

                offset++;
            }
        }
    }

这是c#的

int[,] array = new int[4,4] {
    { 1,2,3,4 },
    { 5,6,7,8 },
    { 9,0,1,2 },
    { 3,4,5,6 }
};

int[,] rotated = RotateMatrix(array, 4);

static int[,] RotateMatrix(int[,] matrix, int n) {
    int[,] ret = new int[n, n];

    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
        for (int j = 0; j < n; ++j) {
            ret[i, j] = matrix[n - j - 1, i];
        }
    }

    return ret;
}

/* 90-degree clockwise:
   temp_array         = left_col
   left_col           = bottom_row
   bottom_row         = reverse(right_col)
   reverse(right_col) = reverse(top_row)
   reverse(top_row)   = temp_array
*/
void RotateClockwise90(int ** arr, int lo, int hi) {

  if (lo >= hi) 
    return;

  for (int i=lo; i<hi; i++) {
    int j = lo+hi-i;
    int temp   = arr[i][lo];
    arr[i][lo] = arr[hi][i];
    arr[hi][i] = arr[j][hi];
    arr[j][hi] = arr[lo][j];
    arr[lo][j] = temp;
  }

  RotateClockwise90(arr, lo+1, hi-1);
}

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]

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]
