error "illegal division by zero" chunk 37.

1 New Member
I have a perl script that throws an error "illegal division by zero" chunk 37.

FYI, this script was the one that worked fine two days back. There is no change
in the script.

Can anyone tell me, what could be the reason...and what is that chunk 37 telling about?

FYI, Whenever you have a divide by 0 error, simply go through your entire script looking for places that you "divide". Then add an if statement to verify that the denominator is actually a non-zero value.

This will help you at least determine where the error is occuring, and then you have a chance to determine what assumptiong concerning the data is incorrect and needs to be taken into account.

The code below does not compile with .NET 2003, I get folowing error: w:\c\Pokusy\delegTemplArg\delegTemplArg.cpp(11) : error C2993: 'float' : illegal type for non-type template parameter 'x' The error shows compiler is quite confused - x is not a template parameter at all. I have found two workarounds, but still I think the code should compile.

I have a perl test program which has about 80 test cases, each of which creates its own schema so I can remove them with DROP SCHEMA xxx CASCADE. Normally each test case creates and drops the same schema, but it can run a mode to preserve each schema and all the disk files for each test. I recently changed my cleanup code to run psql with all -c commands on one command line rather than a separate psql -c for each one ... psql -c 'DROP...

Reliable sources (whose names I'm not allowed to disclose) told me that on the next version of the Deathstation (version 10000, or DS10K) an integral type (they didn't tell which) will have a odd parity bit, that is a bit which is set if an even number of value/sign bits are set, and unset otherwise. If the parity is wrong, the representation is a trap, and they didn't tell me how it is handled (and they won't even have to tell this when...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
