  ```
  
  Division operator.
  
  Coerces both argument to [`Numeric`](/type/Numeric) and divides the left through the right number. Division of [`Int`](/type/Int) values returns [`Rat`](/type/Rat), otherwise the "wider type" rule described in [`Numeric`](/type/Numeric) holds.
  
  Note there is also [`div`](#infix_div) for [`Int`](/type/Int) division.
