Although Python seems to be the exception to the rule here, your example isn't exactly right. In your example, you're performing integer division, not floating point division. In most languages, integer division by zero is indeed some kind of exception (or UB, which will most likely result in a hardware exception, causing a signal sent to the process). However, floating point division by zero is well-defined, as per definition of floating point arithmetic (in some RFCs), and most languages don't throw exceptions in this case. Python indeed seems to be the exception to the rule.
