If you use literals, the compiler catches it at compile
time. "Error: divide by zero" happens when you run the
compiler.
If not, the operating system catches it at runtime.
"Floating point exception" happens when you run the
program.
There's nothing inconsistent about this; it is just
the difference between a compile time error and a
run time error.
The 0 is known at comile time. You should get the error at compile time.
