I once had a beautiful rectangular array. It was very symmetrical, but unfortunately it has fallen apart and now I only have the top left corner. Your task will be to rebuild the original array.

Your program will receive a 2 dimensional array of integers. For ease of parsing, you may assume they are all between 1 and 9. Your task is to reverse the array's columns, its rows, and both, stitch together the resulting corners, and return the resulting array.

You can assume the array dimensions will be at least 1x1.

Test cases:

Input:
1 2 3
4 5 6

Output:
1 2 3 3 2 1
4 5 6 6 5 4
4 5 6 6 5 4
1 2 3 3 2 1

Input:
1

Output:
1 1
1 1

Input:
9
9
9

Output:
9 9
9 9
9 9
9 9
9 9
9 9

This is , fewest bytes wins!

Retina, 13 bytes

\%`$
$^$`
Vs`

Try it online!

Explanation

\%`$
$^$`

On each line (%), match the end of the line ($), and insert the reverse ($^) of the entire line ($`) and print the result with a trailing linefeed (\). This does the reflection along the vertical axis and prints the first half of the output.

Vs`

This just reverses the entire string, which is equivalent to a 180° degree rotation, or in our case (due to the horizontal symmetry) a reflection along the horizontal axis. This way this works is that V's (reverse) default regex is (?m:^.*$), which normally matches each line of the string. However, we activate the singleline option s, which makes . match linefeeds as well and therefore this default regex actually matches the entire string.

The result of this is printed automatically at the end of the program, giving us the second half of the output.
