## Overview

This repository is a collection of prompt-engineering lessons and exercises, including introductory notebooks and separate demonstrations of advanced reasoning patterns with Amazon Bedrock. The learner’s intended workflow is to study prompt techniques through the numbered lessons, then explore the focused pattern notebooks. `utils/hints.py` provides exercise hints and solutions. The README is empty, and the available source excerpts do not show notebook execution or imports, so the graph does not assert dependencies between notebooks or between notebooks and the hints module.

Main entry points: [`00_Tutorial_How-To.ipynb`](https://github.com/babitasinha/prompt-engineering/blob/master/00_Tutorial_How-To.ipynb) (Tutorial guide), [`01_Basic_Prompt_Structure.ipynb`](https://github.com/babitasinha/prompt-engineering/blob/master/01_Basic_Prompt_Structure.ipynb) (Prompt structure), [`02_Being_Clear_and_Direct.ipynb`](https://github.com/babitasinha/prompt-engineering/blob/master/02_Being_Clear_and_Direct.ipynb) (Clear instructions), [`03_Assigning_Roles_Role_Prompting.ipynb`](https://github.com/babitasinha/prompt-engineering/blob/master/03_Assigning_Roles_Role_Prompting.ipynb) (Role prompting)
