What is a prompt?
A prompt is what you type to an AI: your question or instructions. Clearer prompts get better answers.
In real life
Like ordering at a café: "coffee" gets you something, but "a large oat-milk latte, extra hot" gets you what you actually want.

There are lots of kinds of cake, and the best one depends on the occasion and who's eating it. Popular choices include chocolate cake, Victoria sponge and carrot cake. Each has its own style, so it's worth thinking about what you like.
Turn blocks on one at a time. Context makes the answer fit your situation, an example sets the style, and a format controls the shape.
