If you drop it down a level and ask for block level code or functions you'll find it works. At this point users still have to organize the output. But I'm getting the sense that latter task is something LLMs are going to get better at.
Was it a word choice issue on my part then? Like, this task should be achievable using two functions. Should I ask it to write the encode function and then ask it to write the corresponding decode function? Then finally in a third step ask it to write various test functions?
