Transforms

Transform methods modify the geometry of a quadrille by altering the spatial arrangement of its cells. Operations such as rotation, reflection, and transposition enable precise and dynamic transformations of the quadrille’s structure.

ℹ️

Transformation methods support method chaining, allowing multiple modifications to be applied sequentially in a single statement. For example:

quadrille.rotate().reflect().transpose();

is functionally equivalent to:

quadrille.rotate();  
quadrille.reflect();  
quadrille.transpose();

Method chaining improves code readability and streamlines complex transformations.

Method Overview

reflect(): Reflects the quadrille across the horizontal axis.
rotate(): Rotates the quadrille 90 degrees clockwise.
transpose(): Swaps the rows and columns of the quadrille, producing its transposed version.

These transformation methods provide intuitive tools for reshaping a quadrille’s layout. Whether you need to rotate, flip, or transpose cells, these operations allow for flexible and efficient geometric modifications.
