Principles of Prompt Engineering

Clarity and Specificity
Context is King
Iterative Refinement
Role and Perspective Setting
Feedback Integration

Chain-of-thought prompting

The model is guided to generate intermediate reasoning steps before arriving at a final answer. This approach encourages the model to "think aloud," breaking down complex problems into smaller, more manageable parts.

Example:
Question: If a store is offering a 20% discount on an item that originally costs $50, and an additional 10% off the discounted price during a sale, what is the final price?

Chain of Thought:

Calculate first discount (20% of $50 = $10)
Subtract first discount ($50 - $10 = $40)
Calculate additional discount (10% of $40 = $4)
Subtract additional discount ($40 - $4 = $36)
Final Answer: $36

Zero/few-shot prompts

Examples of effective prompting strategies with minimal examples or context.

Multimodal prompting
