Division By Zero Exploration pt 2

This is a continuation of an earlier post called, Division By Zero Exploration, which was a continuation of an even earlier post, Division By Zero. In the exploration post, I concluded that, if dividing by zero is valid, then, “it is basically possible to make anything equal anything”. Further thought has lead to an additionalContinue reading “Division By Zero Exploration pt 2”

Division By Zero Exploration

This post isn’t so much about programming as much about an earlier post about Division By Zero. So, I thought, if the reciprocal operation to 1 / 0, 0 / 1, is valid, then maybe division by zero can be postponed and considered later. Similar to the imaginary concept, i or sqrt(-1). Using just fractionContinue reading “Division By Zero Exploration”

So we all know that dividing by zero is an error in programming, but do you know why? It turns out that it not really an error as much as a math problem, and not so much a problem as much as a thing. Here’s how it goes according to my understanding: A function y=Continue reading “Division By Zero”
