Method 1 ： simulation , Bitmap mode .
Follow Method 2 equally , The difference is auxiliary matrix visited Save space with bitmaps .

Method 2 ： simulation .
You can simulate the path of a spiral matrix . The initial position is the upper left corner of the matrix , The initial direction is to the right , When a path goes out of bounds or enters a previously visited location , Turn clockwise , Go to the next direction .
To determine whether a path enters a previously visited location, an auxiliary matrix of the same size as the input matrix is required visited, Each of these elements indicates whether the location has been accessed . When an element is accessed , take visited Set the element at the corresponding position in the to be accessed .
How to judge whether the path is over ？ Because every element in the matrix is accessed once , So the length of the path is the number of elements in the matrix , When the length of the path reaches the number of elements in the matrix, it is a complete path , Return the path .
Complexity analysis
Time complexity ：O(mn), among m and n The number of rows and columns of the input matrix . Every element in the matrix is accessed once .
Spatial complexity ：O(mn). You need to create a size of m×n Matrix visited Record whether each location has been visited .

Method 3 ： Layer by layer simulation
You can think of a matrix as layers , First output the outermost element , Second, output the sub outer elements , Until the innermost element is output .
Define the order of a matrix k The distance from the layer to the nearest boundary is k All the vertices of . for example , The outermost elements of the matrix in the figure below are all the first 1 layer , The sub outer elements are the first 2 layer , The rest of the elements are the first 3 layer .
Complexity analysis
Time complexity ：O(mn), among m and n The number of rows and columns of the input matrix . Every element in the matrix is accessed once .
Spatial complexity ：O(1). In addition to the output array , Space complexity is a constant .

The code to use golang To write , as follows ：

// Get bitmap No index The value of the element 
func GetBitMapValue(data []byte, index int) bool {

// Set bitmap No index The value of the element 
func SetBitMapValue(data []byte, index int, v bool) {
    if v {
        data[index/8] |= 1 << (index % 8)

knock go test -v -test.run TestSpiralOrder command , give the result as follows ：
