Re: [TRNSYS-users] Division by Zero

[Jihane Assaf <s3467254@student.rmit.edu.au>]

From experience, just put a condition on the denominator not to go to zero (even if it is never goes to zero); like when it is zero, return "1 or some convenient value"

Hi Amir

i think you divide something by an input, which is not constant, and may be null, certainly at time = 0
for example, if the output you need is the division between input_a and input_b, you may write :
output = (1-EQL(Input_b,0))*input_a/(input_b+0.001*EQL(Input_b,0))

Hello

Does anyone know why the error of "dividing by zero" occurs?

I mean i noticed many times that i get this error although when i print out the denominator its value never reached zero.

Thank you

Amir
