I don’t think so Claudeboy.

Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

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

Why cant I breathe when I sleep on my back, I can breathe if im on my side or stomach but I feel uncomfortable since either my neck is twisted or my back is in pain, im physically healthy and my surroundings are clean so whats the problem?

And ever so dutifully, Claude reports:
