Usually, I can predict that a numerator is going to be 0, e.g. in
1/(x^2). I just check the value of the numerator before doing the division.

In rare cases, I can't predict the value of the numerator. In those
cases, I put a try control structure around the offending lines and some
code to clean up after the "final" line.

Kind regards,

I often find that I have to deal with a division by zero error message
in plotting functions, solving equation etc. Are there methods or
techniques used to programmatically handle or work-around a possible
division by zero? e.g. If I want to evaluate y= 1/(x-3), what can I do
to deal with a possible x=3 situation?

Thanks for your help,

Roger
