Can't step a zero degree polynomial #165
Description
Activity
Confirmed that this is a bug in the latest versions of the code (including several fixes). The time response functions are not set up to handle static systems properly. Marking as an 'enhancement' since this is a somewhat unusual case. Shouldn't be too much trouble to fix. We should also check to make sure that various other functions (eg, Bode and Nyquist plots, root locus, etc) function properly or give an appropriate error message.
- linked a pull request that will close this issueimproved default time vector for time response functions that takes zeros into account. #454

When running:
I get this error (I get the same in python 2.7 and 3.5):
