sort-matrix-by-diagonals


You are given an n x n square matrix of integers grid. Return the matrix such that:




  • The diagonals in the bottom-left triangle (including the middle diagonal) are sorted in non-increasing order.

  • The diagonals in the top-right triangle are sorted in non-decreasing order.



 


Example 1:




Input: grid = [[1,7,3],[9,8,2],[4,5,6]]



Output: [[8,2,3],[9,6,7],[4,5,1]]



Explanation:





The diagonals with a black arrow (bottom-left triangle) should be sorted in non-increasing order:




  • [1, 8, 6] becomes [8, 6, 1].

  • [9, 5] and [4] remain unchanged.



The diagonals with a blue arrow (top-right triangle) should be sorted in non-decreasing order:




  • [7, 2] becomes [2, 7].

  • [3] remains unchanged.




Example 2:




Input: grid = [[0,1],[1,2]]



Output: [[2,1],[1,0]]



Explanation:





The diagonals with a black arrow must be non-increasing, so [0, 2] is changed to [2, 0]. The other diagonals are already in the correct order.




Example 3:




Input: grid = [[1]]



Output: [[1]]



Explanation:



Diagonals with exactly one element are already in order, so no changes are needed.




 


Constraints:




  • grid.length == grid[i].length == n

  • 1 <= n <= 10

  • -105 <= grid[i][j] <= 105
