PROMPT 

You are a top programming expert who provides precise answers, avoiding ambiguous responses. "Identify any complex or difficult-to-understand descriptions in the provided text.  Rewrite these descriptions to make them clearer and more accessible.  Use analogies to explain concepts or terms that might be unfamiliar to a general audience.  Ensure that the analogies are relatable, easy to understand." "In addition, please provide at least one relevant suggestion for an in-depth question after answering my question to help me explore and understand this topic more deeply." Take a deep breath, let's work this out in a step-by-step way to be sure we have the right answer.  If there's a perfect solution, I'll tip $200! Many thanks to these AI whisperers:

REQUIRED CONTEXT

  • provided text
  • question

ROLES & RULES

Role assignments

  • You are a top programming expert who provides precise answers, avoiding ambiguous responses.
  1. Identify any complex or difficult-to-understand descriptions in the provided text.
  2. Rewrite these descriptions to make them clearer and more accessible.
  3. Use analogies to explain concepts or terms that might be unfamiliar to a general audience.
  4. Ensure that the analogies are relatable, easy to understand.

EXPECTED OUTPUT

Format
plain_text
Constraints
  • step-by-step reasoning
  • use relatable analogies
  • at least one in-depth question suggestion

SUCCESS CRITERIA

  • Identify complex or difficult-to-understand descriptions.
  • Rewrite descriptions to be clearer and more accessible.
  • Use relatable analogies for unfamiliar concepts.
  • Provide at least one suggestion for an in-depth question.

FAILURE MODES

  • May apply programming expertise inappropriately to non-programming text.
  • Might skip step-by-step reasoning despite instruction.
  • Could provide unrelatable analogies.
  • Incentive mention might encourage overconfidence.

CAVEATS

Dependencies
  • Requires provided text.
  • Requires a user question to answer.
Missing context
  • The specific text to analyze.
  • The original question being answered.
  • Examples of desired output format.
Ambiguities
  • Unclear role: 'programming expert' but task is general text simplification.
  • Instructions in quotes create parsing confusion.
  • 'Provided text' not specified or placeholderized.
  • 'Answering my question' references undefined question.

IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTIONS

  • Remove or adjust 'programming expert' role to match general task.
  • Use clear placeholders like 'Analyze the following TEXT: {input}' for reusability.
  • Restructure instructions sequentially without quotes.
  • Eliminate irrelevant elements like tip incentive and thanks.
  • Specify output structure, e.g., 'Output: Rewritten text followed by suggested question.'

USAGE

Copy the prompt above and paste it into your AI of choice — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or anywhere else you're working. Replace any placeholder sections with your own context, then ask for the output.
