c# - Nice way to avoid DivideByZero exception

Question

I'm trying to divide a number of values and was wondering what would be the best way to check if one of the values is 0 or not. Usually I use something like

var somevar = (somevalue1 != 0 || somevalue2 != 0)?somevalue1 / somevalue2:0;

I have to check a lot of values so was wondering if there is a nicer, smarter way of doing this.

Answer 1

You only need to check the denominator to prevent a divide by zero.

So

var somevar = somevalue2 != 0 ? somevalue1 / somevalue2 : 0;

is much nicer, assuming 0 is a good default.
