    Error handling is the major difference between the with or without divide function,

    1. The "Divide" 
    function is designed to handle division by zero errors. helping to avoid potential errors in your calculations.
    2. The division operator ("/") is more concise for simple division operations without the need for explicit error handling.

    mes1 = DIVIDE(1, 0, 0)   //Returns 0 if the divisor is 0
    mes2 = 1 / 0   //Results in an error

    This is useful means mark as a solution and hit the kudo

    Thank you
