Examples

The following example handles a DivideByZeroException exception in integer division.

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      int number1 = 3000;
      int number2 = 0;
      try {
         Console.WriteLine(number1 / number2);
      }
      catch (DivideByZeroException) {
         Console.WriteLine("Division of {0} by zero.", number1);
      }
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//        Division of 3000 by zero.
open System

let number1 = 3000
let number2 = 0
try
    printfn $"{number1 / number2}"
with :? DivideByZeroException ->
    printfn $"Division of {number1} by zero."

// The example displays the following output:
//        Division of 3000 by zero.
Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim number1 As Integer = 3000
      Dim number2 As Integer = 0
      Try
         Console.WriteLine(number1\number2)
      Catch e As DivideByZeroException
         Console.WriteLine("Division of {0} by zero.", number1)
      End Try
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'       Division of 3000 by zero.

Trying to divide an integer or Decimal number by zero throws a DivideByZeroException exception. To prevent the exception, ensure that the denominator in a division operation with integer or Decimal values is non-zero.

Dividing a floating-point value by zero doesn't throw an exception; it results in positive infinity, negative infinity, or not a number (NaN), according to the rules of IEEE 754 arithmetic. Because the following example uses floating-point division rather than integer division, the operation does not throw a DivideByZeroException exception.

using System;

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      int number1 = 3000;
      int number2 = 0;

      Console.WriteLine((double)number1 / number2);
   }
}
// The example displays the following output:
//        Infinity
open System

let number1 = 3000.
let number2 = 0.

printfn $"{number1 / number2}"

// The example displays the following output:
//        Infinity
Module Example
   Public Sub Main()
      Dim number1 As Integer = 3000
      Dim number2 As Integer = 0

      Console.WriteLine(number1/number2)
   End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
'       Infinity

The following Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) instructions throw DivideByZeroException:

DivideByZeroException uses the HRESULT COR_E_DIVIDEBYZERO, which has the value 0x80020012.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of DivideByZeroException, see the DivideByZeroException constructors.

Constructors Properties Data

Gets a collection of key/value pairs that provide additional user-defined information about the exception.

(Inherited from Exception) HelpLink

Gets or sets a link to the help file associated with this exception.

(Inherited from Exception) HResult

Gets or sets HRESULT, a coded numerical value that is assigned to a specific exception.

(Inherited from Exception) InnerException

Gets the Exception instance that caused the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception) Message

Gets a message that describes the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception) Source

Gets or sets the name of the application or the object that causes the error.

(Inherited from Exception) StackTrace

Gets a string representation of the immediate frames on the call stack.

(Inherited from Exception) TargetSite

Gets the method that throws the current exception.

(Inherited from Exception) Methods Events SerializeObjectState

Obsolete.

Occurs when an exception is serialized to create an exception state object that contains serialized data about the exception.
