Fast way to rotate a char?

Im not talking about rol or ror, but swap bits so that they are rotated 90 degrees:

Example:

a char (and the bits can be random):
10110010 byte 1..
11010110 byte 2.. etc..
00111001
01010110
11011010
10110101
00110011
10110100
after "rotation" (rows and columns are swapped):
11001101
01011000
10100111
11111111
00101000
01010101
11011010
00100110
is it possible to use lookup tables for this or would that lookup table be too big?
or other lookuptable for getting and setting bits?

It's a new way of doing nothing; it's just a little too complicated for you Axis, so go back and play with your 300fps million-dots 6510 dot spheres. :P

WOOT? ;o)


Lol. I needed some sleep. Honestly, this stuff is keeping me awake at night.

Pex: Good that you contribute something to this thread too.

Haha, you guys.

Um, my second and third shuffles from the first phase is pretty brute force on the tables front:

    ldx s1
    ldy s2
    lda sb_t2,x
    ora sb_t3,y
    sta d1
    lda sb_t0,x
    ora sb_t1,y
    sta d2


30 cycles with mem source, zp destination..

Almost 3 years later...

Pretty much what White Flame had in mind, i guess:
Quoting White Flame
Here's another idea which I think fails, but might be salvageable.

So the basic LSR, ROR accumulation grabs a bit and stores a bit, taking 2 instructions per bit. However, if done in-place just like many basic shift-add multiplication routines, ROR both sets a final bit as well as reads the next bit to place. This means that in dream land, the flip can be done in about 64 RORs. If fully in zp, that would be 320 cycles, but only 128 bytes of code with no tables.

However, the tactic I took doesn't seem to have a nice clean loop of RORs linking source bit locations to final bit locations. Various CMP #80s and other byte-masking & merging seems to be required, which would likely bloat it back up to 400+ cycles. But maybe by shuffling it around differently, an arrangement could be made that's both fast and short.
So (everything in zeropage):
               ; from:
         ; row7: a7 a6 a5 a4 a3 a2 a1 a0
         ; row6: b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0
         ; row5: c7 c6 c5 c4 c3 c2 c1 c0

         ; row2: f7 f6 f5 f4 f3 f2 f1 f0
         ; row1: g7 g6 g5 g4 g3 g2 g1 g0
         ; row0: h7 h6 h5 h4 h3 h2 h1 h0

               ; to:
dest7   .byte 0; a7 b7 c7 d7 e7 f7 g7 h7
dest6   .byte 0; a6 b6 c6 d6 e6 f6 g6 h6

Problem with bitshifter is it only deals with one bit at a time.

c2p exchanges four bitpairs in only 20-30 cycles. The expensive part is moving bits to matching positions within the two bytes they're being exchanged between...
Turns out both approaches are pretty much in the same ballpark. =)
(And this approach apparently coming out just ever so slightly faster. \=D/)

Might be possible to squeeze out a few more cycles here and there, so feel free.

I have a hunch that the general problem can't be solved in fewer than 280-ish cycles, though.

@Krill: Nice!!!

So, now what about the shortest code to rotate a char? (or a reference to the message number if it's already stated here)

Jackasser: Shortest? Going fully academic, eh? =D

I guess it would be the naïve approach, in a nested loop (untested):
SOURCE = $02
DEST   = $0a

        ldy #7      ; 2
-       ldx #7      ; 2
-       lsr SOURCE,x; 2
        ror         ; 1
        dex         ; 1
        bpl -       ; 2
        sax DEST,y  ; 2
        dey         ; 1
        bpl --      ; 2
15 bytes.

But i'd rather have a faster than 280-ish cycles approach. =)
