Here’s the proof :
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:
Why do some guys treat girls so badly?
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
Your software developer job is safe for at least the next 100 years.
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?
$200 for a Refurbished MacBook Air Is a Tough Deal to Beat - PCMag
Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
To the reader/asker:
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):
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:
I test TVs for a living — and I recommend these 2 TVs above everything else - Tom's Guide
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
I don’t think so Claudeboy.
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
What’s a mistake most guys make when trying to get a girlfriend?
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):
As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
