Prompt Engineering for Reasoning Models

Recent large language models (LLMs), such as OpenAI's O1/O3 series, Anthropic's Claude 3.7, and DeepSeek R1, have shifted from basic text generation to internal multi-step reasoning. Unlike earlier models like GPT-4o, which primarily generate responses via next-word prediction, these reasoning-focused models internally simulate logical analysis before responding12. Prompt engineering strategies must evolve accordingly.
