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!

Judge rejects Newsom’s emergency request to limit Trump LA troop deployment - The Hill

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

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

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):

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:

Here’s the proof :

At Chicago baseball stadium, Pope Leo makes his first pitch to America - The Washington Post

And presto goes Claude, the clueless junior-dev (it also botched correctly showing //):

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?

I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Why do you allow your cat to lie in bed with you?

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

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:

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