Query which we ask the LLM is referred to as prompt. The way in which we provide prompt to LLM makes a difference and there are different ways to to provide a prompt. This is referred to as prompting styles or prompt engineering. Now lets see some of the commonly used styles :
1. Zero shot prompting
This is a no brainer, We will simply just give a query to llm. i.e A task will alone be provided to llm. However this style is not that good.
2. Few shot prompting
Along with the basic prompt, Few examples will be provided. i.e inputs and its respective output of how it should be are included. LLM will generate output to our query based on the provided examples.
