How to transpose a matrix

Monadic swaps rows and columns:

      M  3 4⍴⍳12
      M
1 5  9
2 6 10
3 7 11
4 8 12

The shape changes from 3 4 to 4 3:

      ⍴⍉M
4 3

Transposing a vector returns it unchanged:

       1 2 3
1 2 3

Transpose each matrix in a 3D array

Use the rank operator to transpose at rank 2:

      (2) 2 3 4⍴⍳24
