Sequential Prompts
Sequential prompting involves breaking a complex task into a series of smaller, connected prompts. This helps guide the AI through multi-step processes and ensures each part is handled thoroughly.
Why Use Sequential Prompts?
- Improves accuracy for complex tasks
- Allows for feedback and adjustment at each step
- Makes it easier to track progress
Examples
- "First, list the main causes of climate change."
- "Now, explain how each cause contributes to the problem."
- "Suggest one solution for each cause."
Or, for coding:
- "Write a function to sort an array."
- "Now, add error handling for invalid input."
Tips
- Number your prompts or use clear transitions ("Next," "Then,")
- Review and refine after each step
- Use previous answers as context for the next prompt
Sequential prompts help you tackle complex tasks one step at a time.
