Code Generation using AlphaCodium - Prompt Engineering vs. Flow Engineering

The article introduces a new approach to code generation by LLMs - a test-based, multi-stage, code-oriented iterative flow, that improves the performances of LLMs on code problems: [Code Generation with AlphaCodium - from Prompt Engineering to Flow Engineering](https://www.codium.ai/blog/alphacodium-state-of-the-art-code-generation-for-code-contests/)

Comparing results to the results obtained with a single well-designed direct prompt shows how AlphaCodium flow consistently and significantly improves the performance of LLMs on CodeContests problems - both for open-source (DeepSeek) and close-source (GPT) models, and for both the validation and …
