Given a square matrix and the task is to check the matrix is in upper triangular form or not. A square matrix is called upper triangular if all the entries below the main diagonal are zero.

Examples: 

Input : mat[4][4] = {{1, 3, 5, 3},
                     {0, 4, 6, 2},
                     {0, 0, 2, 5},
                     {0, 0, 0, 6}};
Output : Matrix is in Upper Triangular form.

Input : mat[4][4] = {{5, 6, 3, 6},
                     {0, 4, 6, 6},
                     {1, 0, 8, 5},
                     {0, 1, 0, 6}};
Output : Matrix is not in Upper Triangular form.

Implementation:

C++




// Program to check upper triangular matrix.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#define N 4
using namespace std;
  
// Function to check matrix is in upper triangular
// form or not.
bool isUpperTriangularMatrix(int mat[N][N])
{
    for (int i = 1; i < N; i++)
        for (int j = 0; j < i; j++)
            if (mat[i][j] != 0)
                return false;
    return true;
}
  
// Driver function.
int main()
{
    int mat[N][N] = { { 1, 3, 5, 3 },
                      { 0, 4, 6, 2 },
                      { 0, 0, 2, 5 },
                      { 0, 0, 0, 6 } };
    if (isUpperTriangularMatrix(mat))
        cout << "Yes";
    else
        cout << "No";
    return 0;
}

    {
        for (int i = 1; i < N ; i++)
            for (int j = 0; j < i; j++)

                    return false;
        return true;

                       { 0, 0, 0, 6 } };
                      
        if (isUpperTriangularMatrix(mat))
            System.out.println("Yes");

Output

Yes

Time Complexity: O(n2), where n represents the number of rows and columns of the matrix.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), no extra space is required, so it is a constant.
