sounds good but that give me 2 side changes, i need 1.
for examle:
        given: a square abcd (clockwies points of square)
        after rotation: dabc
thas a counter clockwise rotation (point moves one position in square).

it's a give example that contains most of the functionality i need. my 
c-sqills are bad :-( so i'll not try and make a new lib.
