How floating point numbers are represented in memory in JAVA?
As int i=10/0 give divide by zero exception but double d= 10/0.0 gives infinity. So, internally how infinity is represented in double in JAVA?

floating point numbers in java are represented in the IEEE457 standard (as in any other languages). when dividing with integers, it can't divide by 0, because of the way a computer divides numbers doesn't allow an integer to hold the result. however, floats can hold infinity, -infinity and even values considered not to be numbers, so there's no need for an exception to be raised.
