Prompt Engineering

Context means extra information you give the AI so it understands your situation better.

Without context → AI guesses and often gets it wrong. With context → AI gives perfect, personalized answers.

Bad (no context): “Help me with my project.” → AI has no idea what subject, level, or goal.

Good (with context): “I am a Class 10 student in India preparing for science fair project. My topic is solar energy. Give me 5 creative ideas for a working model using materials easily available at home. For each idea, explain materials needed, steps, and why it works.” → AI now gives relevant, practical ideas!
