math is a specification, / 0 spec is undefined. means the implementation is free to do whatever it wants - they'd all be equally correct.

Zero is the key to all, sits between positive and negative. A perfect balance, infinite and sublime.

I have a vague memory of trying this on a few machines in mid 70s. If I remember correctly, some just churned away indefinitely until the power was disconnected. Others churned for a repeatable amount of time and then stopped - timed out, I assume.

What happens when you divide by zero on a mechanical 1950s calculator? In the 1950s, mechanical calculators didn’t have the safety checks of modern machines. So when someone tried to divide a number by zero, the calculator didn’t display an error. Instead, it would enter into a chaotic loop, spinning its gears uncontrollably. This endless motion happened because the machine was trying to calculate something undefined, and it simply didn’t know when to stop.

In the 1950s, mechanical calculators had no divide-by-zero protection. If you tried it, the machine went crazy- gears spinning, buzzing loudly, racing until someone yanked the plug. It literally couldn’t stop, and could overheat or break. People learned the hard way: never divide by zero!
