Codewar-010 Rotate Array

Create a method named "rotate" that returns a given array with the elements inside the array rotated n spaces.

If n is greater than 0 it should rotate the array to the right. If n is less than 0 it should rotate the array to the left. If n is 0, then it should return the array unchanged.

Example:

Object[] data = new Object[]{1, 2, 3, 4, 5};

rotate(data, 1)    =>    {5, 1, 2, 3, 4}
rotate(data, 2)    =>    {4, 5, 1, 2, 3}
rotate(data, 3)    =>    {3, 4, 5, 1, 2}
rotate(data, 4)    =>    {2, 3, 4, 5, 1}
rotate(data, 5)    =>    {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

rotate(data, 0)    =>    {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

rotate(data, -1)    =>    {2, 3, 4, 5, 1}
rotate(data, -2)    =>    {3, 4, 5, 1, 2}
rotate(data, -3)    =>    {4, 5, 1, 2, 3}
rotate(data, -4)    =>    {5, 1, 2, 3, 4}
rotate(data, -5)    =>    {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Furthermore the method should take ANY array of objects and perform this operation on them:

rotate(new Object[]{'a', 'b', 'c'}, 1)        =>    {'c', 'a', 'b'}
rotate(new Object[]{1.0, 2.0, 3.0}, 1)        =>    {3.0, 1.0, 2.0}
rotate(new Object[]{true, true, false}, 1)    =>    {false, true, true}

Finally the rotation shouldn't be limited by the indices available in the array. Meaning that if we exceed the indices of the array it keeps rotating.

Example:

Object[] data = new Object[]{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

rotate(data, 7)        =>    {4, 5, 1, 2, 3}
rotate(data, 11)       =>    {5, 1, 2, 3, 4}
rotate(data, 12478)    =>    {3, 4, 5, 1, 2}

package codewars;

public class Rotator {

	public Object[] rotate(Object[] data, int n) {

		if (n == 0) {
			return data;
		} else {
			Object[] result = new Object[data.length];
			int steps = n % data.length;
			for (int i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {

				result[i] = data[(i - steps >= 0 ? (i - steps) % data.length
						: i - steps + data.length)];
			}

			return result;
		}
	}
}
