I always thought if I get a Floating Point Exception it was because I
was dividing by 0!? My program is getting weird FPE's so I made a test
program to divide a float by 0, and divide 0.0 by a float. Both gave
answers WITHOUT generating an FPE, soooooo, that kinda shoots that
theory out the window...

Is it because the float goes out of bounds, ie. number is too large or
small? I'd really appreciate some feedback here, cause if i can fix the
fpe's my program would be a lot more stable! Thanks!
