New Zero Division Error Issue

[StephenCranney]

Several months ago I was often using Fuzzymatcher and never ran into a problem. However, now when I (and a colleague on a completely different OS) try to fuzzymatch two data frames I'm getting a ZeroDivisionError (below). I've read through the responses to a similar problem a few years ago (issue 42 below), and they suggest incorporating a "except (ValueError, ZeroDivisionError)" into line 44 of the tokencomparison.py file. The problem is that file already has the ZeroDivisionError built in, which suggests that this ZeroDivisionError is a new one with a different provenance. Any suggestions for how to fix this without breaking the package would be helpful.

ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero

After an initially promising start with this package, as I widened my test data I quickly ran into the same bug.

Unfortunately I'm under time pressure so I'll have to move on and try other packages, but I'm also keen to hear of any possible fix.

Ran into this error today.
Any options how to fix it?
