A Systematic Survey of Prompt Engineering in Large Language Models: Techniquesand Applications

How Prompt Engineering Unlocks Large Language Models

Think of a prompt as a short note that tells a computer what to do, and suddenly a big, trained model can answer, create or help with tasks it never was changed to do.
These methods nudge large language models without touching their inner parts, so you can plug them into new jobs fast.
Prompts may be plain words, simple instructions, or tiny hidden signals that wake up stored knowledge.
People use them for chat answers, helping with everyday decisions, and even to make sense of images—real world applications that feel surprising and simple to use.
Researchers grouped many trick and ways by where they work and what they help with, which makes it easier to pick the right prompt for a job.
There still is lack of clear rules and many open challenges remain, but the field is moving quick and shows big task potential.
This means more tools, smarter helpers, and new ways to solve problems—often with just a few words.
