Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
To the reader/asker:
What’s up in the sky for June 2025? Arietid meteor shower, strawberry moon and much more - WTOP
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
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:
You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Do conservative white women like black men?
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 somehow looks both thin and chunky in latest leaks - Android Police
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
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):
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
Here’s the proof :
