Hello everyone!I want to start the discussion on the RFC: Raising zero to the power of negative number Link: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/raising_zero_to_power_of_negative_number Kind regards, Jorg
In Python, the error message for `0 ** -1` is:
ZeroDivisionError: 0.0 cannot be raised to a negative power
Instead of "DivisionByZeroError: Division by zero" as the PHP exception
message, could we use a similar message? Something like:
DivisionByZeroError: Zero cannot be raised to a negative power
I think this will be clearer to a user who encounters this error and
isn't aware that raising zero to a negative power is the equivalent of
dividing by zero.
