Stack effect: ( n n -- n )

Divide the second element on the stack by the top element.

NOTE: As the traditional Forth divide operation uses integers and rounds toward zero, this operation will return different results, even with integer inputs.

NOTE: In Haiku Forth (unlike Traditional Forth), all stack cells and memory locations are floating point numbers.

Examples:

• 8 4 / → 2
• 3 2 / → 1.5
