Answer 1

Well, devision by zero is undefined...
But if you want to look at it as a limit, where division by zero "is" infinity, you could use a try/except:

try:
result = num_1 / num_2
except ZeroDivisionError:
result = "inf"

Answer 2

Forgot to mention the case when num_1 is negative. Then it should be -inf of course 😅
