TRANSPOSE

Transformational Intrinsic Function (Generic): Transposes an array of rank two.

Syntax

result = TRANSPOSE (matrix)

matrix
(Input) Must be a rank-two array (of any data type).

Results:

The result is a rank-two array with the same type and kind parameters as matrix. Its shape is (n, m), where (m, n) is the shape of matrix. For example, if the shape of matrix is (4,6), the shape of the result is (6,4).

Element (i, j) of the result has the value matrix (j, i), where i is in the range 1 to n, and j is in the range 1 to m.

Examples

B is the array

  [ 2  3  4 ]
  [ 5  6  7 ]
  [ 8  9  1 ].

  [ 2  5  8 ]
  [ 3  6  9 ]
  [ 4  7  1 ].

The following shows another example:

 INTEGER array(2, 3), result(3, 2)
 array = RESHAPE((/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6/), (/2, 3/))
 ! array is  1  3  5
 !           2  4  6
 result = TRANSPOSE(array)
 ! result is 1  2
 !           3  4
 !           5  6
