Yes, of course (as I know you know), the same way that

does "not" work.

I really think that in June 2024  you (Ogbos) should not run
"productively" an R version that is older than May 2021 (where R
4.1.0 was released) :

  $ R-4.1.0 --version | head 1
  R version 4.1.0 (2021-05-18) -- "Camp Pontanezen"

  $ R-4.1.0 --vanilla -s -e '1:10|>sum()' 
  [1] 55
  $ 

So upgrading your R to current (R 4.4.1)  is *very* much recommended.
