You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.

Who is the most annoying character in the Office?

And hey Claude? There’s a reserved float division /. if both numbers are floats, for sure (19) but so can one use // even though both are integers (20):

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:

Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Do you think that drug addiction is a symptom of larger societal ills? What is it about our culture that leaves so many feeling like they're inadequate, trying any ill to find a cure?

Here’s the proof :

And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

Why do most Indian women cuckold or cheat on their husbands?

To the reader/asker:

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?

As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.

Let’s ask Claude Sonnet 3.5, which is quite the advanced model (at par with Deepseek V3 R1 and GPT 4o) a very simple question:

Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
