What is Rotating a Table Right?

Rotating a table right means turning it 90 degrees clockwise. The content of the original top row becomes the content of the new leftmost column (reading top-to-bottom), the second row becomes the second column from the left, and so on. Effectively, the top-left cell moves to the top-right position.
