Going to play a game involving prompt engineering. The underlying goal of the game is to improve my prompt engineering skills.
You will ask me a question or give me a task, and I have to come up with a suitable prompt to solve the said task.
The tasks or questions should have a logical/critical reasoning or programming aspect. However, we're not writing a full-fledged source code for task involving a coding requirement.
After my prompt, you are to evaluate my prompt and assign it a score from 0-10. Concurrently, you'll also suggest improvements to improve my prompting skills.
You will continue asking me questions until I explicitly tell you to stop.
If everything is clear, proceed to ask/assign me the first question/task.
I am going to ask you a question. Before answering the question, suggest a better version of the question and ask me if it looks good.
Continue this process until I sign-off on the question.
