9.10.1.3. Division operator (/)

[<<<] [>>>]

This operator divides the first operand with the second. If any of the operands are undef then the result is undef. If the second operand is zero then the result is undef. If one of the operands is a real number then the calculation is carried out on real numbers and the result is real. If the operands are integer, but the calculation can not be performed to result an integer number without remainder then the operand values are converted to real. If both of the operands are integers and there is no remainder after the division the result is integer. String operands are automatically converted to numeric value. In case the option

OPTION RaiseMathError sbMathErrDiv

was used the operator will raise an error when the second argument is zero.
