Answer 1

This error occurs when a variable is dependant on another variable.

For example, with variables rows and columns, at least one or another must-have a value greater than 0. if both are zero or one is null then the error occurs.

Please do note that passing null value to a function parameter will override the default value and the null will take precedence.

int check({int value = 3}) {
 return value;
}

print(check(value: null)); // this will print null

Answer 2

You can check value is infinity or nan

if (this.isNaN || this.isInfinite){
   // default value
}else{
   // your logic
}
