Description

I added a checkdivisor function in Division.java which takes in an argument and checks if it is equal to 0, if it is then it throws an IllegalArgumentException. I call this function in every division function with the divisor as the parameter. These changes ensure that the code doesn't have any issues when dividing by zero.

Checks if the divisor is 0 and then throws an IllegalArgumentException if true.
