This code is a mix of the same question one time rotating to the right and one time to the left. I tried to simplify the code since I'm struggling with all of the indexing here.

https://leetcode.com/problems/rotate-image/

https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/rotate-matrix-90-degree-without-using-extra-space-set-2/

Rotate the image by 90 degrees (clockwise).

Note:

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:

Given input matrix = [ [1,2,3], [4,5,6], [7,8,9] ],

rotate the input matrix in-place such that it becomes: [ [7,4,1],
[8,5,2], [9,6,3] ] Example 2:

Given input matrix = [ [ 5, 1, 9,11], [ 2, 4, 8,10], [13, 3, 6, 7], [15,14,12,16] ],

rotate the input matrix in-place such that it becomes: [ [15,13, 2, 5], [14, 3, 4, 1], [12, 6, 8, 9], [16, 7,10,11] ]

Please review this code as I am trying to simplify it in order to be able to have a good short solution for a coding interview. I can't memorize this logic of course I just want to have a solid simple solution in mind.

    \$\begingroup\$ You are mixing your code in with the unit tests. I suggest to make seperate classes for tests and code. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ You have solved this one time before, just for a normal array - with a O(n^2) complexity. You can easily change that solution for a jagged array and to handle clock wise rotation. \$\endgroup\$

    \$\begingroup\$ @henrik I hate this solution. The indexing there is too complex. \$\endgroup\$

Performance

Time complexity for your algorithm is \$O(N²+N²/2)\$. If you find a way to combine Transpose \$O(N²)\$ and ReverseCols \$O(N²/2)\$ in a single run, you could get \$O(N²)\$ in worst case.

Edit: given Henrik's good eye, you have already come up with a solution before that adheres to the optimized complexity. So, apply it here.
