I don’t think so Claudeboy.
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 presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):
How do you view men and women who cheat?

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:
Let’s use the agent to see if it can search at least, when it doesn’t know?

Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!
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:

To the reader/asker:
Here’s the proof :
And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?
Re——-aaaaalllllly.
Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?
Ah. Claude Claude Claude.
