>>> def rotate_matrix( k: List[List[int]]):
"""
For example, if I have:
m = [[1,2,3],
[2,3,3],
[5,4,3]]
rotate_matrix(m) should give me [[3,3,3],[2,3,4],[1,2,5]].
"""


Edit: Preferably without numpy.

You could use the numpy function rot90



import numpy as np
m = np.array([[1,2,3],
[2,3,3],
[5,4,3]])

def rotate_matrix(mat):
return np.rot90(mat)

    Here is the counter clockwise matrix rotation as one line in pure python (i.e., without numpy):



    new_matrix = [[m[j][i] for j in range(len(m))] for i in range(len(m[0])-1,-1,-1)]


    If you want to do this in a function, then



    def rotate_matrix( m ):
    return [[m[j][i] for j in range(len(m))] for i in range(len(m[0])-1,-1,-1)]


    and either way, the result for



    m = [ [1,2,3], [2,3,3], [5,4,3]]


    is



    [[3, 3, 3], [2, 3, 4], [1, 2, 5]]


    Aside, if you want the usual transpose, then the simple one line pure python version is



    [[m[j][i] for j in range(len(m))] for i in range(len(m[0]))]
