FWIW, I tend to write a lot of error checking code that checks for division by zero ahead of time and just returns zero instead. Found an example: public double magnitude { get { double c = max_magnitude; return c > 0 ? Math.Max(c, c * (this / c)._internal_magnitude) : 0; } } I could delete quite a few if statements in pretty hot codepaths if division by zero just returned zero.
