## Overview
|
|
|
|
One common prompting technique for achieving better performance is to include examples as part of the prompt. This is known as [few-shot prompting](/docs/concepts/few_shot_prompting).
|
|
|
|
This gives the [language model](/docs/concepts/chat_models/) concrete examples of how it should behave.
|
|
Sometimes these examples are hardcoded into the prompt, but for more advanced situations it may be nice to dynamically select them.
|
|
|
|
**Example Selectors** are classes responsible for selecting and then formatting examples into prompts.
