+# Instructions
+
+Given the size, return a square matrix of numbers in spiral order.
+
+The matrix should be filled with natural numbers, starting from 1 in the top-left corner, increasing in an inward, clockwise spiral order, like these examples:
+
+## Examples
+
+### Spiral matrix of size 3
+
+```text
+1 2 3
+8 9 4
+7 6 5
+```
+
+### Spiral matrix of size 4
+
+```text
+ 1  2  3 4
+12 13 14 5
+11 16 15 6
+10  9  8 7
+```
