rajamesandClaude Opus 5.5 361dcd1148 feat(v4.0.0): division by zero is guarded (D-15); division words in the capsule
Ruled 2026-10-04: guarded, an error shown, back to the prompt.

- capsule/forth.v4: / MOD /MOD */ */MOD M/MOD, M* and S>D join the
  vocabulary.  Each dividing word tests its divisor first; zero prints
  v3's message ("/: Division by zero"), ends an open definition, prints
  ERROR and returns to the prompt from however deep.
- SM/REM here has UM/MOD written into it and keeps its signs in memory,
  and */MOD has M* written in, so that division can be used inside words
  that other words call: / from four words deep, */MOD from three.
- forth.v4 now loads after quit.v4, which the guard leaves through.
- tests: v3 transcripts for each message; /MOD, /, MOD and */MOD against
  C on every pair of edge values.

\ forth.v4 -- the first words of the FORTH vocabulary: the ones that are
\ opcodes or short runs of them, and the variables that are in-line addresses.
\
\ Each is the definition DECOMPOSITION.md gives (sections 4, 5.1 - 5.5, 5.18).
\ A word flagged inline is copied into a definition in place of a call; the
\ ones that touch the return stack are compile-only as well. Rests on core.v4,
\ compile.v4's loader constants, and quit.v4, which the division words leave
\ through when the divisor is zero. (F) is three cells of scratch for
\ this file.

\ ---- division (sections 4 and 5.6) ----
\ Division by zero is guarded (D-15): each word tests its divisor before it
\ does anything else, and a zero divisor prints v3's message --
\ /: Division by zero
\ -- and ends the line with ERROR, from however deep, as an address fault
\ does. Nothing is left for the word's caller: it is not returned to.

\ ( d n -- rem quot ) truncating toward zero: the quotient has the sign of
\ d xor n, the remainder the sign of d. This is section 4's SM/REM with its
\ UM/MOD -- restoring division, one step a bit, the divisor in A -- written
\ into it, and the two signs kept in (F) where section 4 has them on the
\ return stack. A word that divides is then four return entries deep, not
\ eight, so division can be used inside words that other words call (D-2).
\ The answer is the same. Exact when the quotient fits a cell; its callers
\ have seen to it that n is not zero.
