What is Rotating a Table Left?

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