Trying to divide by zero (0) causes undefined behavior, as shown in the following example:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
printf("Trying to divide with zero...\n");
int x = 123;
int y = x / 0; // undefined behavior
printf("The result is: %d\n", y);
}
Possible Output:
Trying to divide with zero...
Floating point exception (core dumped)
Similar to math rules, we should not divide by zero in C either. The above example causes undefined behavior. We should replace the zero with any other value.
