triu!(M)

triu!(M)

Upper triangle of a matrix, overwriting M in the process.

Examples

  1. Modify a matrix by keeping only the upper triangle:

    julia> A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
    julia> triu!(A)
    3×3 Array{Int64,2}:
    1  2  3
    0  5  6
    0  0  9

    This example modifies the matrix A by keeping only the upper triangle elements.

  2. Specify the superdiagonal to start from:

    julia> B = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9];
    julia> triu!(B, 1)
    3×3 Array{Int64,2}:
    0  2  3
    0  0  6
    0  0  0

    Here, the k value is set to 1, which means the upper triangle starts from the first superdiagonal.

  3. Handle edge cases with empty matrices:
    julia> C = Int64[]
    julia> triu!(C)
    0-element Array{Int64,1}

    It correctly handles the case when the input matrix is empty.

Common mistake example:

julia> D = [1 2; 3 4; 5 6];
julia> triu!(D, 5)
ERROR: BoundsError: attempt to access 3×2 Matrix{Int64} at index [3, 4]

In this example, the value of k provided is greater than the number of superdiagonals in the matrix D. It's important to ensure that k is within a valid range to avoid such errors. Always check the dimensions of the matrix before using triu!.
