I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
Here’s the proof :
Inside the first official barefoot hiking park in the US - SFGATE
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!
Why did Kakashi use Chidori against Rin, despite knowing about her feelings for Obito?
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
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 let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
Commanders CB Lattimore feeling 'way better' - ESPN
To the reader/asker:
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
Triassic reptiles took 10,000 mile trips through 'hellish' conditions, study suggests - Phys.org
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:
