gives a matrix in which all but the upper triangular elements of m are replaced with zeros.

replaces with zeros only the elements below the k subdiagonal of m.

UpperTriangularize[m] works even if m is not a square matrix.
In UpperTriangularize[m,k], positive k refers to subdiagonals above the main diagonal and negative k refers to subdiagonals below the main diagonal.
UpperTriangularize works with SparseArray objects.
