You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Here’s the proof :
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
To the reader/asker:
Have you ever been forced to dress like a girl?
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
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):
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
Why did McLaren hope that the Ferrari pair would pit twice during the Italian Grand Prix?
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:
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
