I would like to divide one array by another using the slice syntax so

My question is: Is there a way to force 0/0 and x/0 to result in 0?

Thank you,

I don't know of a way. You may want to try first running a loop
replacing 0 with inf throughout the denominator array. Then run
vectorized division; any non-inf divided by inf yields 0.

At this point it's probably useless to vectorize, though.  You may as well just
write something like:

if(isNaN(arr2[i])) {
    result[i] = 0;
} else {
    result[i] = arr1[i] / arr2[i];
}

I don't know. In such cases only experimentation can prove anything.
