I just tried to look it up on the interweb and I got an error dialog that says computers can't divide by zero.

 computers can't divide by zero.


But if they could, what would they get..... I suppose the answer would require a reboot!

A conceptual definition in this context would likely be defined as expensive.

If I was going post in this thread, I would probably take something right from the Bill Clinton playbook and attempt something half-witted witty like …

Assuming that “What’s” is the contraction for “What is” ... then it would all depend upon the definition of “is”.

Does anybody have a cigar?
