For example: the array
a1, a2, a3, b1, b2, b3, c1, c2, c3, d1, d2, d3
represents following table
a1, b1, c1, d1
a2, b2, c2, d2
a3, b3, c3, d3
now i like to bring the array into following form
a1, b1, c1, d1, a2, b2, c2, d2, a3, b3, c3, d3
Does an algorithm exist, which takes the array (from the first form) and the dimensions of the table as input arguments and which transfers the array into the second form? I thougt of an algorithm which doesn't need to allocate additional memory, instead i think it should be possible to do the job with element-swap operations.
