There are some special representations that can be imported, for example
from numarray.ieeespecial import inf
However, My simulations require HEAVY array mathematics, so I dont have an
opportunity to test for exceptions.

try:
a = x/0
except ValueError:
pass # or some other outcome (a = 'inf')as far as I know python does not have a representation for infinity. (if I
am wrong, somebody please correct me)
