Quick Answer

Handle invalid arithmetic operations.

Understanding the Issue

This error occurs when attempting to divide by zero.

The Problem

This code demonstrates the issue:

Python Error 
result = 10 / 0

The Solution

Here's the corrected code:

Python Fixed 
# Solution 1: Check denominator
if denominator != 0:
    result = numerator / denominator

# Solution 2: Try-except block
try:
    result = numerator / denominator
except ZeroDivisionError:
    result = float('inf')

# Solution 3: Using fractions
from fractions import Fraction
result = Fraction(numerator, denominator)

Key Takeaways

Always validate denominators before division.
