This challenge concerns square matrices (same number of rows and columns) as the below example illustrates:
[
[1, 2, 3],
[4, 5, 6],
[7, 8, 9]
]
The entries in the diagonal line from the top left to the bottom right form the main diagonal of the matrix. In this case, 1,5,9 form the main diagonal.
Write a function that returns the matrix obtained by replacing the entries above the main diagonal with 0s.
For example, for the matrix above you should return:
[
[1, 0, 0],
[4, 5, 0],
[7, 8, 9]
