Frequency response only reports exact zeros · case 04

A notch that evaluates to 1e-16 due to rounding is reported as about -320 dB with a random phase.

Case contract

Input [b, a, freqs]; coefficients and frequencies are numbers or rational strings, frequencies are fractions of Nyquist. For w = pi f evaluate H = B(e^{jw})/A(e^{jw}) with z^-k = e^{-jwk}; return per frequency [20 log10 |H| rounded to 4, phase in degrees rounded to 3], "pole" if |A| < 1e-12, "zero" if |H| < 1e-9.

Why this case matters

Magnitude and phase plots are how filters are verified; unit or sign slips misreport cutoff and delay.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
