Handling runtime errors is crucial for database applications, and one common issue is the "divide by zero" error in PL/SQL. This error occurs when dividing any number by zero, resulting in undefined behavior and potential crashes.

Where are exceptions used in pl/sql

Effective handling involves identifying possible causes, implementing preventive checks, and using Oracle PL/SQL's powerful exception-handling mechanisms to mitigate this error.

Understanding 'Divide by Zero' Exception

The 'divide by zero' exception occurs when attempting to divide a number by zero, which is mathematically undefined.

In PL/SQL, such an operation can lead to runtime errors, disrupting application execution and potentially compromising data integrity. To mitigate this risk, PL/SQL provides mechanisms for handling exceptions, including the 'divide by zero' scenario.

Effective Techniques to Handle 'Divide by Zero' Exceptions

1. Identify Division Operations: Identify any division operations in your code where a denominator value could potentially be zero.

2.
