Floating point division

Hi, does anyone has a code for floating point division? i tried using the megafunction tool for division but it keeps giving me error when i run simulation.

Floating point division in firmware is no trivial task. You could always offload that problem to a NIOS, but that seems like overkill. Are you sure you can't get by with fixed point or avoiding division entirely?
