Python Program to Transpose a Matrix

Python program for transpose of a matrix

Now, we will write a Python program for the transpose of an input given matrix where we perform the operation as we have performed in the above-given example. To perform the transpose operation on the matrix, we will use the nested for loop method.

Let's understand the use and implementation of this method through the following example.

Example: Look at the following Python program:

# Define a matrix A  
A = [[5, 4, 3],  
         [2, 4, 6],  
         [4, 7, 9],  
         [8, 1, 3]]  
# Define an empty matrix of reverse order  
transResult = [[0, 0, 0, 0],    
                             [0, 0, 0, 0],  
                             [0, 0, 0, 0]]  
# Use nested for loop on matrix A  
for a in range(len(A)):    
   for b in range(len(A[0])):    
          transResult[b][a] = A[a][b] # store transpose result on empty matrix          
# Printing result in the output  
print("The transpose of matrix A is: ")  
for res in transResult:    
   print(res)  

Output:

The transpose of matrix A is: 
[5, 2, 4, 8]
[4, 4, 7, 1]
[3, 6, 9, 3]
