I like how there are IFs and ELSE IFs but those logical constructs aren't actually explicitly followed...

and inside the IF instead of a dash as a bullet point there's an arrow.. that's the _syntax_? hah.. what if there were two lines of instructions, you'd make a new line starting with another arrow..?

Did they try some form of it without IFs first?...



Syntax doesn't need to be precise - it's natural language, not formal language. As long as a human could understand it the LLM will too.


Said differently: if it's ambiguous to humans, it will be ambiguous to the LLM too.


Yes I understand it's natural language... but programming syntax is being used as if it's going to be followed explicitly like a program.


Can you guess who wrote that ?
