I'm talking about the general case of
Ohm's Law where you can take any two known quantities and calculate the
third.


*Any* two? Really?

Voltage = 120, current = zero. Calculate resistance, please.


Resistance is infinite.

My computer did the calculation right. Some don't. I pressed '1', '2', '0', '/', '0', '=' and the display showed 'inf'.


For whatever it's worth...
