Division by zero error.
Hi allI get division by zero error in one of the reports that has been developed by one of our programmers. I think that this can be easily corrected in decoding or using a Case statement. I'm not sure how to use it below scenario.
SUM( round((nvl("TRIP"."DRY_MAT",0))
/ nvl("TRIP"."SPREAD_MILES",1) * 2000,2) ) over(partition by "TRIP"."TRIP_NO",

Just a hunch, but the version of your database includes analytical functions?
After the output of the query.

You try to do the following?
(1) if spread_miles_total is set to NULL, use instead 1.
(2) if spread_miles_total is not null and is equal to 0, then use 1.
(3) if spread_miles_total is not null and is equal to 0, then retains its value.
If so, then use the CASE expression as follows-

Handful of division by zero error in SQL
Hello
a few messages back, someone asked about how best to manage divide them by zero.
Can I come back to this topic with, what is the best way to manage divide them by error in SQL without repeating the code...
What I have in mind is often divided by error appears as the result of a long formula calculation - and trying to bury a long a long calculation formula in a case statement gives you an extremely long result, but is not ideal for the maintenance of the code.
Encapsulating the manipulation in a function is not great for performance reasons.
So is there a simple way to do the equivalent of (pseudo)
Select IFerr (real / (RidiculouslyLongConvulutedFormulaHereWhichSometimesYieldsZeroValues), 0) of the double
Where IFerr works as NVL - except that it gives 0 when the result is a wrong number or the result otherwise?
Thank you
Robert.Hello
a few messages back, someone asked about how best to manage divide them by zero.
I saw this thread, but it mentions the NULLIF function?
You can apply it to each denominator in your formula, so it returns NULL in which case it is set to 0.
For example,.
with t as ( select 1 numerator, 0 denominator from dual ) select numerator/nullif(denominator,0) as div from t;

Division equals zero exception handling
Hi all
I'm new to this forum
I created a trigger, but it does not work.
DECLARE
v_width INTEGER.
v_height INTEGER: = 0;
v_area INTEGER: = 6;
BEGIN
v_width: = v_area / v_height;
DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line ('v_width =' | v_width);
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line ("Division by zero");
END;
/
However, I always get this error
ERROR on line 1:
ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero
ORA-06512: at line 7
I can't debug. I need to deal with in the right way, all exceptions must be considered.
The best solution is to never divide by zero in the first place, for example:
DECLARE
v_width INTEGER.
v_height INTEGER: = 0; / * no doubt it is affected in any other way * /.
v_area INTEGER: = 6;
BEGIN
IF v_height > 0 THEN
v_width: = v_area / v_height;
DBMS_OUTPUT. Put_line ('v_width =' | v_width);
ON THE OTHER
Dbms_output.put_line ('v_width is undefined');
END IF;
END;
/
Also, don't handle unexpected exceptions with nothing but debug output - protect against them, manipulate them in a meaningful way, or allow them to be propagated to the caller.

Division by zero weird problem on HP 8200 Elite SFF
Greetings,
I posted my message here, it appears now that my problem is hardware specific. My machine has the following specifications:
HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF
Intel Core i5-2500 Duo @3.3 GHz processor
8 GB memoryWindows 7 x 64
(I can provide more details if necessary)
This has been me puzzled for more than a week now!
We have an application where we lack in a division by zero. That request is deliberately built to raise exceptions in this case, with a call to the function _controlfp_s for edit masks on floating point exceptions.
Now, when you run in a division by zero pretty much all of our machines, Visual Studio 2005 debugger breaks in the right place in our source files. However, on this machine, the location of the break is in every sense and seems to be unrelated to the real cause of the failure. So as a test, I built a simple win32 C program with just the following lines of code:
int main (int argc, char * argv [])
{
float temp1, temp2, temp3;
unsigned int control;
_controlfp_s (& control, _EM_UNDERFLOW + _EM_INEXACT, _MCW_EM);
Temp1 = 1.0;
Temp2 = 0.0;
Temp3 = temp1/temp2;
return 0;
}On all these 'good' machines, the code breaks when the temp3. Among the other machines tested successfully, I had various hardware and operating systems, including Server 2008 R2, Windows XP x 32 and Windows 7 Pro x 64. However, on this machine, the code stops at:
C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\crt\src\tidtable.c
function:
__set_flsgetvalue()
In reviewing the records I have change the assembler code, everything seems fine until I hit the "ptsps" statement... then all records seem to be messed up (vs research as expected on a good machine). When comparing the stack on the good vs. bad, I also see entries of pile on the wrong machine, I don't see a good...
Now... Here's what I did to solve problems:
1. a disc image of the original disc HP on a hot spare and the original picture restored.
2. only installed Visual Studio 2005 Pro - portion of C++.
3 - tested above, code has always failed.4 - update all service packs Windows and tested above code. Failed.
5 - update all service packs, the Studio 2005 and tested above code. Failed.
6 uninstalling all the bloatware and tested above code. Failed.
7 - updating the BIOS and firmware and tested above code. Failed.
8. install Visual Studio 2010 and tested above code. Failed.
Then... I decided to take my spare disk image and install it on a similar, but a little older HP computer that we have, which has the following specifications:
HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF
Intel Core Duo E8400 #3 GHz
4 GB memoryI went through the process of installation very well, even though she used the typewriter 8200 recovery partition. On this machine, I simply installed the operating system and Visual Studio 2005 Pro - portion of C++. No service packs not whatsoever (even if the Studio 2005 requires an update for 'vista') and the code worked as expected!
So, that leaves me about almost everything but the material! Also note that I tried to disable several processors and all optimization of the BIOS on the 8200, without success.
I don't see anything else I can try... Please help!Wow!
After the posting of this message to a friend... He found a document showing very similar symptoms on some of their CPUs from intel... I then found the exact document who applied to our specific processor (intel i5-2500) here:
http://www.Intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/specification-updates/2nd-Gen-core-desktop-specification-update.PDF
See Erratum BJ1This article describes pretty much exactly what I run into! (Seriously), I never thought this would be a problem at THIS level!

Hello
I use NI LabWindows CVI 2012.
I have a piece very simple code:
Double a = 4/0;
This piece of code, I would like to return NaN, or at least do something that isn't to stop the execution on the compilation. "Is there a way to turn NaN handling functionality or add an exception for the compiler that said: if division by zero is found, returns zero" or something?
Here, any help would be greatly appreciated
Hello
It's probably doing an entire division and then by converting the result in duplicate. Division by zero with an integer will crash your application. I would try this:
Double a = 4.0/0,0;
If adding le.0 in the end tells the compiler that it is a floating point type, where division by zero is not as bad. Moreover,.
Double;
a = NotANumber ();
Can also do what you want. If you want to check for NaN you can do something like this:
If (IsNotANumber (a))
a = 0.0;

RyanThe standard method to avoid division by 0 in x errors / when there may be 0 is
{code}
x / NULLIF (y, 0)
{code}
This returns null if y = 0. In your case, which would result in:
{code}
To_char ((Type
/ NULLIF (NVL (LAG (Type) (ORDER BY year)
Type
)
0
) * 100
) - 100
'999990'
) || '%' "% increase.
{code}
which guarantees that you will get the NULL value instead of the division by 0 error, but that means that the whole expression will be "%" when the number is NULL. If you really want the % sign in the set of results and not just the head, then use CASE, as Boneist suggested and cumulative Sven.
