Ah. Claude Claude Claude.

Re——-aaaaalllllly.

Here’s the proof :

To the reader/asker:

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