# Leetcode 48. Rotate Image ###### tags: `Leetcode` https://leetcode.com/problems/rotate-image/ ## Description You are given an n x n 2D matrix representing an image, rotate the image by 90 degrees (clockwise). You have to rotate the image in-place, which means you have to modify the input 2D matrix directly. DO NOT allocate another 2D matrix and do the rotation. **Example 1:** ``` Input: matrix = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]] Output: [[7,4,1],[8,5,2],[9,6,3]] ``` **Example 2:** ``` Input: matrix = [[5,1,9,11],[2,4,8,10],[13,3,6,7],[15,14,12,16]] Output: [[15,13,2,5],[14,3,4,1],[12,6,8,9],[16,7,10,11]] ``` **Example 3:** ``` Input: matrix = [[1]] Output: [[1]] ``` **Example 4:** ``` Input: matrix = [[1,2],[3,4]] Output: [[3,1],[4,2]] ``` **Constraints:** - matrix.length == n - matrix[i].length == n - 1 <= n <= 20 - -1000 <= matrix[i][j] <= 1000 ## Solution in C Time Complexity: $O(n^2)$ Space Complexity: $O(1)$ ```c void rotate(int** matrix, int matrixSize, int* matrixColSize){ for(int i=0; i<(matrixSize+1)/2; i++){ int k = matrixSize-i-1; for(int j=0; j<matrixSize/2; j++){ int l = matrixSize-j-1; //rotate 90 degrees int temp = matrix[i][j]; matrix[i][j] = matrix[l][i]; matrix[l][i] = matrix[k][l]; matrix[k][l] = matrix[j][k]; matrix[j][k] = temp; } } } ```
