I am hoping someone can provide suggestions on how to diagonally rotate a 2D array. So the first row becomes the first column; second row, second column, etc...

Any guidance appreciated.

Argh! Sorry, I forgot to mention: Javascript

This is called a 'transpose' – DilithiumMatrix Nov 18 '15 at 18:53
It depends on the language. In some languages it is a single line of code – John Coleman Nov 18 '15 at 18:56

Not sure the suggested dupe is entirely useful to the OP. Obviously the general principles apply, but they are asking about Javascript in particular. – Matt Burland Nov 18 '15 at 19:26
