This question is inspired by Kevin Cruijssen's question.



Now that the carpet is laid out, we want to roll it. Your task is to write a program that takes a string and returns a spiral made from this string (representing a rolled carpet viewed from the side).



The procedure for one step of rolling the carpet is the following. There is an example to illustrate what I mean. Notice that the example starts with a partially rolled carpet for better understanding:



ac
rpet


  • separate the "head" from the "tail" of the carpet: the head is what has been rolled so far, the tail is what remains to be rolled.

Head: ac Tail:
rp et


  • Rotate the head 90°, clockwise.

Rotated head: ra Tail (unchanged):
pc et


  • if the width of the new head (here 2) is less or equal than the length of the tail (here 2)

    • then, put it on top of the tail

    • else, the carpet (as it was at the begining of the step) was rolled


New carpet: ra
pc
et


Repeat the procedure as many times as needed.




Two examples showing all steps of the carpet rolling:

10
23456789

21
30
456789

432
501
6789



Some precisions:



  • You don't need to show all intermediate steps, only the rolled carpet (e.g. if you find a non-iterative way to compute the result, it's perfect). Also, you don't need to print any leading whitespace, in the examples above, I only show them to align stuff.

  • Input is a String, a list/array of char

  • Output is printed to stdout or to a file.

  • Input is nice: the length is at least 1 char, and at most a constant sufficiently small so that it doesn't cause problems, but you can't use that constant in your program; the content of the string is only nice characters ([a-zA-Z0-9]), encoding at your preference.

  • This is code-golf, so shortest answer in bytes wins. Don't let code-golf languages discourage you from posting answers with non-codegolfing languages. Try to come up with an as short as possible answer for 'any' programming language.


  • Default Loopholes are forbidden.

  • If possible, please add a link with a test for your code.

  • Also, add an explanation for your answer if you think it is needed.

Try it online here, or verify all the test cases at once here.



.U+j;bZ.WgleHJlhH,+_MChZ<eZJ>eZJ,]hQtQ Implicit: Q=eval(input())
Trailing Q inferred
]hQ First character of Q, wrapped in an array
tQ All but the first character of Q
, 2-element array of the two previous results
This yields array with rolled carpet (as array of strings) followed by the tail
.W While condition function is truthy, execute inner function, with initial value of the above:
gleHJlhH Condition function, input H
JlhH Number of layers in the current rolled carpet, store in J
leH Lenth of the tail
g J Is the above greater than or equal to J?
,+_MChZ<eZJ>eZJ Inner function, input Z
_MChZ Rotate the current rolled carpet (transpose, then reverse each row)
+ <eZJ Append the first J characters of the tail as a new row
, Pair the above with...
>eZJ ... all but the first J characters of the tail - this is the new tail
.U+j;bZ Join the carpet roll on newlines and append the tail, implicit print

                        If this is an answer to a challenge…



                        • …Be sure to follow the challenge specification. However, please refrain from exploiting obvious loopholes. Answers abusing any of the standard loopholes are considered invalid. If you think a specification is unclear or underspecified, comment on the question instead.


                        • …Try to optimize your score. For instance, answers to code-golf challenges should attempt to be as short as possible. You can always include a readable version of the code in addition to the competitive one.
                          Explanations of your answer make it more interesting to read and are very much encouraged.


                        • …Include a short header which indicates the language(s) of your code and its score, as defined by the challenge.


                        More generally…



                        • …Please make sure to answer the question and provide sufficient detail.


                        • …Avoid asking for help, clarification or responding to other answers (use comments instead).
