hai abapers,

topic : Division.

example : a type p decimals 3,

b = 0

c = a / b.

at this time execution , run time error comes .

example : a type p decimals 3,

b = 0

CATCH SYSTEM-EXCEPTIONS arithmetic_errors = 4

OTHERS = 8.

c = a / b.

ENDCATCH.

See F1 help or search the forum for TRY....CATCH....

You can avoid by handling exceptions.

Any number divided by zero will result infinity. so avoid dividing by zero. Perform calculation only when the denominator is not zero.

[JozsefSzikszai]

you can also do:

IF b NE 0.
c = a / b .
ELSE.
WRITE : 'Only Chuck Norris is able to divide by zero!'.
ENDIF.

Then how the code would be if Chuck Norris write the program to divide by 0

Hi Raj,

As we know anything divided by zero is always zero which throws exception in ABAP to avoid that situation

in ABAP check the value of b if not 0 then divide else avoid dividing.
