Ruby

Example:

> BigDecimal(10) ** BigDecimal("Infinity") FloatDomainError: Computation results in 'Infinity' 

Maybe:

require "bigdecimal/util" class BigDecimal < Numeric def **(other) if other.infinite? == 1 if self > 1 BigDecimal::INFINITY elsif self == 1 self elsif self >= 0 BigDecimal(0) else power(other) end else power(other) end end end def puts_and_eval(string) puts string p eval(string) end puts_and_eval "10 ** BigDecimal::INFINITY" puts_and_eval "1 ** BigDecimal::INFINITY" puts_and_eval "0.1 ** BigDecimal::INFINITY" puts_and_eval "0 ** BigDecimal::INFINITY" puts_and_eval "-1 ** BigDecimal::INFINITY" 

Seems like ruby is doing very different things from math though
