Interview Prompt
Given a single list of [numerator, denominator] pairs, return a results list where for each pair you produce: the quotient numerator / denominator as a float on success; the string 'division by zero' when the denominator is 0; and the string 'invalid input' when either operand is not a number. Process every pair so that one bad pair never stops the rest, and return the results in the same order as the input.
Summary
Good code handles failure as gracefully as success.
