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
