# rewind

Rewind [(Multi)LineString](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#linestring) or [(Multi)Polygon](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#polygon) outer ring counterclockwise and inner rings clockwise (Uses [Shoelace Formula](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoelace_formula)).

**Parameters**

-   `geojson` **([FeatureCollection](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#feature-collection-objects) \| [Geometry](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#geometry) \| [Feature](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#feature-objects)<([Polygon](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#polygon) \| [MultiPolygon](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#multipolygon) \| [LineString](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#linestring) \| [MultiLineString](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#multilinestring))>)** input GeoJSON Polygon
-   `reverse` **\[[Boolean](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Boolean)]** enable reverse winding (optional, default `false`)
-   `mutate` **\[[boolean](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Boolean)]** allows GeoJSON input to be mutated (significant performance increase if true) (optional, default `false`)

**Examples**

```javascript
var polygon = turf.polygon([[[121, -29], [138, -29], [138, -18], [121, -18], [121, -29]]]);

var rewind = turf.rewind(polygon);

//addToMap
var addToMap = [rewind];
```

Returns **([FeatureCollection](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#feature-collection-objects) \| [Geometry](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#geometry) \| [Feature](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#feature-objects)<([Polygon](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#polygon) \| [MultiPolygon](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#multipolygon) \| [LineString](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#linestring) \| [MultiLineString](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#multilinestring))>)** rewind Polygon
