Imprompt: A New Language Framework for Prompt Programming
A novel language framework named Imprompt has been put forward for prompt programming, with the goal of streamlining and separating task descriptions from execution specifics. This framework, detailed in arXiv:2607.22683, views prompts as programmable interfaces to harness the potential of language models. Imprompt tackles the challenges present in current frameworks by asserting that prompt programs should solely include task descriptions, distinct from lower-level execution details. The creators demonstrate structured prompting as an integration of prompt programming and the compilation of prompt programs, providing formal definitions for two compilers designed for Imprompt programs.
