| 15 | +I'll work through this step-by-step. |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +First, let me draw a block letter 'G' on a fixed-width grid: |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +``` |
| 20 | +##### |
| 21 | +# # |
| 22 | +# |
| 23 | +# ### |
| 24 | +# # |
| 25 | +# # |
| 26 | +##### |
| 27 | +``` |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Now, rotating 90° clockwise in-plane: |
| 30 | +- Top row becomes rightmost column |
| 31 | +- Left column becomes top row |
| 32 | +- Bottom row becomes leftmost column |
| 33 | +- Right column becomes bottom row |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +After 90° clockwise rotation: |
| 36 | +``` |
| 37 | +####### |
| 38 | +# # |
| 39 | +# # |
| 40 | +# # # |
| 41 | + # # |
| 42 | + ##### |
| 43 | +``` |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +Now reflecting across the vertical mid-line: |
| 46 | +- The leftmost column becomes rightmost |
| 47 | +- The rightmost column becomes leftmost |
| 48 | +- Middle columns swap symmetrically |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | +Final result after reflection: |
| 51 | +``` |

| 61 | +Okay, let's break this down step-by-step. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +1. **Choose a Block Letter 'G' and Grid Size:** |
| 64 | + I'll use a 7x7 grid. For the 'G' itself, I'll design a 5x5 character block, which will be centered within the 7x7 grid (1-pixel padding all around). I'll use '#' for the letter and '.' for the background. |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | + Initial 'G' (5x5 letter part): |
| 67 | + ``` |
| 68 | + ##### |
| 69 | + #.... |
| 70 | + #.### |
| 71 | + #...# |
| 72 | + ##### |
| 73 | + ``` |
| 74 | + Placed in the 7x7 grid (let's call this `Grid_Initial`): |
| 75 | + ``` |
| 76 | + ....... |
| 77 | + .#####. |
| 78 | + .#..... |
| 79 | + .#.###. |
| 80 | + .#...#. |
| 81 | + .#####. |
| 82 | + ....... |
| 83 | + ``` |
| 84 | +
|
| 85 | +2. **Rotate 90° Clockwise In-Plane:** |
| 86 | + The 7x7 grid itself rotates. A point `(row, col)` in the original grid moves to `(col, GridHeight - 1 - row)`. Here, GridHeight = 7. So, `(row, col)` -> `(col, 6 - row)`. |
| 87 | + Let's consider the 5x5 letter part first. Original letter part `L[r][c]` (0-indexed, 0 to 4). New letter part `L_rot[nr][nc]`. `nr = c`, `nc = (5-1)-r = 4-r`. |
| 88 | +
|
| 89 | + * `L[0][0..4] = #####` -> `L_rot[0][4]=#`, `L_rot[1][4]=#`, `L_rot[2][4]=#`, `L_rot[3][4]=#`, `L_rot[4][4]=#` |
| 90 | + * `L[1][0..4] = #....` -> `L_rot[0][3]=#`, `L_rot[1][3]=.`, `L_rot[2][3]=.`, `L_rot[3][3]=.`, `L_rot[4][3]=.` |
| 91 | + * `L[2][0..4] = #.###` -> `L_rot[0][2]=#`, `L_rot[1][2]=.`, `L_rot[2][2]=#`, `L_rot[3][2]=#`, `L_rot[4][2]=#` |
| 92 | + * `L[3][0..4] = #...#` -> `L_rot[0][1]=#`, `L_rot[1][1]=.`, `L_rot[2][1]=.`, `L_rot[3][1]=.`, `L_rot[4][1]=#` |
| 93 | + * `L[4][0..4] = #####` -> `L_rot[0][0]=#`, `L_rot[1][0]=#`, `L_rot[2][0]=#`, `L_rot[3][0]=#`, `L_rot[4][0]=#` |
| 94 | +
|
| 95 | + Reconstructing `L_rot` row by row: |
| 96 | + Row 0: `#####` (from `L_rot[0][0]` to `L_rot[0][4]`) |
| 97 | + Row 1: `#...#` (from `L_rot[1][0]` to `L_rot[1][4]`) |
| 98 | + Row 2: `#.#.#` |
| 99 | + Row 3: `#.#.#` |
| 100 | + Row 4: `###.#` |
| 101 | +
|
| 102 | + So the rotated 5x5 letter part looks like this: |
| 103 | + ``` |
| 104 | + ##### |
| 105 | + #...# |
| 106 | + #.#.# |
| 107 | + #.#.# |
| 108 | + ###.# |
| 109 | + ``` |
| 110 | + This rotated letter part is still 5x5, so it remains centered in the 7x7 grid. |
| 111 | + `Grid_Rotated`: |
| 112 | + ``` |
| 113 | + ....... |
| 114 | + .#####. |
| 115 | + .#...#. |
| 116 | + .#.#.#. |
| 117 | + .#.#.#. |
| 118 | + .###.#. |
| 119 | + ....... |
| 120 | + ``` |
| 121 | +
|
| 122 | +3. **Reflect Across the Vertical Mid-line:** |
| 123 | + The 7x7 grid has columns 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The vertical mid-line is column 3. |
| 124 | + Reflection means a point `(row, col)` moves to `(row, GridWidth - 1 - col)`. Here, GridWidth = 7. So, `(row, col)` -> `(row, 6 - col)`. |
| 125 | + Let `Grid_Final` be the result. `Grid_Final[r][c] = Grid_Rotated[r][6-c]`. |
| 126 | +
|
| 127 | + * Row 0: `Grid_Rotated[0]` is `.......`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[0]` is `.......`. |
| 128 | + * Row 1: `Grid_Rotated[1]` is `.#####.`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[1]` is `.#####.`. |
| 129 | + * Row 2: `Grid_Rotated[2]` is `.#...#.`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[2]` is `.#...#.`. |
| 130 | + * Row 3: `Grid_Rotated[3]` is `.#.#.#.`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[3]` is `.#.#.#.`. |
| 131 | + * Row 4: `Grid_Rotated[4]` is `.#.#.#.`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[4]` is `.#.#.#.`. |
| 132 | + * Row 5: `Grid_Rotated[5]` is `.###.#.` |
| 133 | + `Grid_Final[5][0] = Grid_Rotated[5][6] = .` |
| 134 | + `Grid_Final[5][1] = Grid_Rotated[5][5] = #` |
| 135 | + `Grid_Final[5][2] = Grid_Rotated[5][4] = .` |
| 136 | + `Grid_Final[5][3] = Grid_Rotated[5][3] = #` |
| 137 | + `Grid_Final[5][4] = Grid_Rotated[5][2] = #` |
| 138 | + `Grid_Final[5][5] = Grid_Rotated[5][1] = #` |
| 139 | + `Grid_Final[5][6] = Grid_Rotated[5][0] = .` |
| 140 | + So, `Grid_Final[5]` is `.#.###.`. |
| 141 | + * Row 6: `Grid_Rotated[6]` is `.......`. It's symmetric, so `Grid_Final[6]` is `.......`. |
| 142 | +
|
| 143 | +Final ASCII Drawing: |
| 144 | +``` |
| 145 | +....... |
| 146 | +.#####. |
| 147 | +.#...#. |
| 148 | +.#.#.#. |
| 149 | +.#.#.#. |
| 150 | +.#.###. |

| 154 | +## DeepSeek Reasoner (519 secs) |
| 155 | +After rotating the block letter 'G' 90° clockwise in-plane and then reflecting it across the vertical mid-line, the final ASCII drawing is as follows. The original 'G' was drawn on a 7-row by 5-column grid. After rotation, the grid becomes 5 rows by 7 columns. The reflection step swaps columns symmetrically across the vertical midline (column index 3 in a 0-based 7-column grid). |
| 156 | +
|
| 157 | +**Final ASCII Drawing:** |
| 158 | +
|
| 159 | +``` |
| 160 | + ***** |
| 161 | +* * |
| 162 | +* * * |
| 163 | +* * * |
| 164 | + * *** |
| 165 | +``` |
| 166 | +
|
| 167 | +### Explanation: |
| 168 | +- **Row 0:** Space, five asterisks, space (` ***** `). |
| 169 | +- **Row 1:** Asterisk, five spaces, asterisk (`* *`). |
| 170 | +- **Row 2:** Asterisk, two spaces, asterisk, two spaces, asterisk (`* * *`). |
| 171 | +- **Row 3:** Same as Row 2 (`* * *`). |
| 172 | +- **Row 4:** Space, asterisk, space, three asterisks, space (` * *** `). |
| 173 | +
|
| 174 | +This grid represents the transformed 'G' after the specified operations. The drawing uses spaces (not shown explicitly) and asterisks (`*`) for clarity. |
| 175 | +
|
| 176 | +## Grok 3 (20 secs) |
| 177 | +Let's go through this step by step to draw a block letter 'G', rotate it 90° clockwise in-plane, and then reflect it across the vertical mid-line of the grid. I'll use a fixed-width grid (let's say 5x5 for simplicity, as it fits a block 'G' well) and represent the letter with '#' characters and empty spaces with '.'. |
| 178 | +
|
| 179 | +### Step 1: Draw the Block Letter 'G' |
| 180 | +A block letter 'G' on a 5x5 grid can look like this, with the main structure resembling the shape of a 'G': |
| 181 | +
|
| 182 | +``` |
| 183 | +. # # # . |
| 184 | +. # . . . |
| 185 | +. # # # . |
| 186 | +. . . # . |
| 187 | +. # # # . |
| 188 | +``` |
| 189 | +
|
| 190 | +- The top row forms the top bar of the 'G'. |
| 191 | +- The left column forms the vertical stroke. |
| 192 | +- The bottom rows curve back to form the lower part and the middle horizontal stroke. |
| 193 | +
|
| 194 | +### Step 2: Rotate 90° Clockwise In-Plane |
| 195 | +Rotating a grid 90° clockwise means each position (i,j) moves to (j, n-1-i), where n is the grid size (5 here). So, let's map each '#' to its new position: |
| 196 | +
|
| 197 | +- Original grid (row, col): |
| 198 | + - Row 0: (0,1), (0,2), (0,3) → '#' |
| 199 | + - Row 1: (1,1) → '#' |
| 200 | + - Row 2: (2,1), (2,2), (2,3) → '#' |
| 201 | + - Row 3: (3,3) → '#' |
| 202 | + - Row 4: (4,1), (4,2), (4,3) → '#' |
| 203 | +
|
| 204 | +After 90° clockwise rotation (new_row = old_col, new_col = 4 - old_row): |
| 205 | +- (0,1) → (1,4) |
| 206 | +- (0,2) → (2,4) |
| 207 | +- (0,3) → (3,4) |
| 208 | +- (1,1) → (1,3) |
| 209 | +- (2,1) → (1,2) |
| 210 | +- (2,2) → (2,2) |
| 211 | +- (2,3) → (3,2) |
| 212 | +- (3,3) → (3,1) |
| 213 | +- (4,1) → (1,0) |
| 214 | +- (4,2) → (2,0) |
| 215 | +- (4,3) → (3,0) |
| 216 | +
|
| 217 | +The rotated grid becomes: |
| 218 | +
|
| 219 | +``` |
| 220 | +. . . . . |
| 221 | +# . # . # |
| 222 | +# . # . # |
| 223 | +# . # # # |
| 224 | +. . . . . |
| 225 | +``` |
| 226 | +
|
| 227 | +### Step 3: Reflect Across the Vertical Mid-Line |
| 228 | +The vertical mid-line of a 5x5 grid is between columns 2 and 3 (since 5/2 = 2.5, so we flip across col=2). Reflection means swapping columns 0 with 4, and 1 with 3. So, for each row: |
| 229 | +- Col 0 swaps with Col 4 |
| 230 | +- Col 1 swaps with Col 3 |
| 231 | +- Col 2 stays the same |
| 232 | +
|
| 233 | +Applying this to the rotated grid: |
| 234 | +
|
| 235 | +- Row 0: . . . . . → . . . . . |
| 236 | +- Row 1: # . # . # → # . # . # |
| 237 | +- Row 2: # . # . # → # . # . # |
| 238 | +- Row 3: # . # # # → # # # . # |
| 239 | +- Row 4: . . . . . → . . . . . |
| 240 | +
|
| 241 | +In a 5x5 grid, reflecting across the vertical mid-line (col=2 as the center): |
| 242 | +- Col 0 becomes Col 4 |
| 243 | +- Col 1 becomes Col 3 |
| 244 | +- Col 2 stays Col 2 |
| 245 | +- Col 3 becomes Col 1 |
| 246 | +- Col 4 becomes Col 0 |
| 247 | +
|
| 248 | +So, for each row: |
| 249 | +- Row 1: # . # . # → # . # . # |
| 250 | + - Pos 0 (#) → Pos 4 (#) |
| 251 | + - Pos 1 (.) → Pos 3 (.) |
| 252 | + - Pos 2 (#) stays (#) |
| 253 | + - Pos 3 (.) → Pos 1 (.) |
| 254 | + - Pos 4 (#) → Pos 0 (#) |
| 255 | + Result: # . # . # (same as original row, coincidentally) |
| 256 | +- Row 2: # . # . # → # . # . # (same as above) |
| 257 | +- Row 3: # . # # # → # # # . # |
| 258 | + - Pos 0 (#) → Pos 4 (#) |
| 259 | + - Pos 1 (.) → Pos 3 (.) |
| 260 | + - Pos 2 (#) stays (#) |
| 261 | + - Pos 3 (#) → Pos 1 (#) |
| 262 | + - Pos 4 (#) → Pos 0 (#) |
| 263 | + Result: # # # . # |
| 264 | +
|
| 265 | +The final grid after reflection is: |
| 266 | +
|
| 267 | +``` |
| 268 | +. . . . . |
| 269 | +# . # . # |
| 270 | +# . # . # |
| 271 | +# # # . # |
| 272 | +. . . . . |
| 273 | +``` |
| 274 | +
|
| 275 | +### Final ASCII Drawing |
| 276 | +The final result after rotating the block letter 'G' 90° clockwise and reflecting it across the vertical mid-line is: |
| 277 | +
|
| 278 | +``` |
| 279 | +. . . . . |
| 280 | +# . # . # |
| 281 | +# . # . # |
| 282 | +# # # . # |
| 283 | +. . . . . |
| 284 | +``` |
| 285 | +
|
| 286 | +This is the final ASCII representation of the transformed 'G'. Note that due to the symmetry in some rows, the reflection didn't alter the appearance drastically in rows 1 and 2, but row 3 shows the effect of the flip. If you visualize it, the original 'G' has been transformed into a new shape that reflects the specified operations. |
