Matrices pattern

Rotate Image

Given an n x n matrix representing an image, rotate it 90 degrees clockwise in place, modifying the matrix directly without allocating another 2D array. Watch it run step by step, then write your own pseudocode and get it checked by AI.

From the first idea to the best one

  1. 01 Transpose + reverse rows O(n²)O(1) space
  2. 02 Direct 4-cycle rotation O(n²)O(1) space
Each approach plays step by step, with its time and space.

What you will learn

  • How to read Rotate Image and spot the matrices pattern in it
  • Transpose + reverse rows: O(n²) time, O(1) space
  • Direct 4-cycle rotation: O(n²) time, O(1) space
  • The pseudocode for each approach, its line lit as the animation runs
  • Practice: write your own pseudocode and get it checked
