This is your friendly Microsoft Issue Bot. I've seen this issue come in and have gone to tell a human about it.

I am not able to replicate the issue.

The proper output when dividing by zero should be:

According to IEEE 754 should return ±infinity.

If the divisor is zero and the dividend is a finite nonzero number, then the
division by zero exception shall be signaled. The result, when no trap
occurs, shall be a correctly signed INFINITY

It'd be nice if everyone didn't have to fill the repo with troll issues and replies, some of us were hoping subscribing to the repo wouldn't equate to this garbage.

Oh come on.

@ScottieD is right tho, works on my end too.

Ha, thanks for the report! You had @MicrosoftIssueBot confused for a bit there...
