And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:

Claude boy, how do I do division and modulus in OCaml?

To the reader/asker:

Is using tech to track or monitor your partner’s activities a sign of love, insecurity, or control?

You can do modulus with %. In fact, it’s the standard way to do it! (See command 17). And mod is deprecated (command 18):

As usual, I’ll make my point backed by verifiable examples.
