OverflowError: math range error...

Hi,

I have a written a script that will check to see if the divisor is zero
before executing but python will not allow this:

if statistic_array[0:4] > 0.0:
statistic_array[0,0:4] =
int(multiply(divide(statistic_array[0,0:4],statistic_array \
[0,4]),10000.0))/100.0

Does anyone know why Python is complaining:

"statistic_array[0,0:4] =
int(multiply(divide(statistic_array[0,0:4],statistic_array[0,4]),10000.0))/100.0

OverflowError: math range error"

and how do I get around this problem? This stupid because there is a if
statement preventing this "dividing by zero".

Sincerely,
Sheldon
