What do you mean by space time and what will be the damage?

What Ahri is trying to say is, if your program prints literal infinity, the amount of data generated will be so enormous that nuclear fusion will eventually occur due to the gravity built upon sheer mass of data. If left unattended, this will form a super massive black hole which will crush everything due to its enormous core density, causing Earth to cease to exist, being replaced by another galactical system which would be orbited by the Milky Way and the rest of the remaining galaxies.
I believe the early founders of programming languages have already been aware of such risk, and have took measures to prevent these scenarios from happening. This is why a simple runtime error occurs when you try to divide by zero, instead of a celestial, cosmic death event.

@Jav Vis It would be good to continue a conversation inside the same thread/topic instead of creating a new thread/topic for each question.

oh my God @Jar Vis you make me laugh.
i suggest you learn basic math (and physics).
it will be very very very helpful to your programming course.
by the way, please respond everybody answer in the same post.

by space and time I mean the physical space and passage of time within our universe. the damage will break the physics of our universe, or at least stretch them to extremes; it will have unforeseen consequences and we will all die.
