Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
To the reader/asker:
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
What are the best ways to treat seasonal allergies?
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:
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Have you ever accidentally seen your mother-in-law doing something that was private to her?
You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
What is the best interracial stories that you hear or know and want to share?
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
Here’s the proof :
US valley fever cases may be 18 times higher than reported - CIDRAP
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
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):
The S&P 500 closes at 6,000 as bulls aim for return to record territory - MarketWatch
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
