顺时针打印矩阵

题目描述

输入一个矩阵，按照从外向里以顺时针的顺序依次打印出每一个数字，例如，如果输入如下4 X 4矩阵： 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 则依次打印出数字1,2,3,4,8,12,16,15,14,13,9,5,6,7,11,10

import java.util.ArrayList;

public class Solution {
	public ArrayList<Integer> printMatrix(int[][] matrix) {
		if (matrix == null)
			return null;
		int south = matrix.length, east = matrix[0].length, north = 0, west = 0, count = south
				* east;
		int row = 0, col = 0;
		int direction = 1;
		ArrayList<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();

		for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
			list.add(matrix[row][col]);
			switch (direction) {
			case 1:
				if (col + 1 >= east) {
					direction = 2;
					north++;
					row++;
				} else
					col++;
				break;
			case 2:
				if (row + 1 >= south) {
					direction = 3;
					east--;
					col--;
				} else
					row++;
				break;
			case 3:
				if (col - 1 < west) {
					direction = 4;
					south--;
					row--;
				} else
					col--;
				break;
			case 4:
				if (row - 1 < north) {
					direction = 1;
					west++;
					col++;
				} else
					row--;
				break;
			}
		}
		return list;
	}
