Study Notes
Exactly Questions: Exploring Types of Inquiries
When it comes to seeking information, the type of question you ask can significantly influence the kind of answer you receive. As we dive into the world of "Exactly Questions," let's explore different types of inquiries that fall under this domain.
Declarative Questions
Declarative questions are those seeking factual information. They usually begin with words like "What," "Who," "When," "Where," or "Why." Here's an example: "What is the capital of France?"
Definitional Questions
Definitional questions aim to define a term or concept. They often begin with words like "Define," "Describe," or "Explain." For example: "What does the term 'quantum entanglement' mean?"
Sequential or Instructional Questions
Sequential or instructional questions are used to provide guidance or follow a series of steps. They often begin with words like "How," "Step by step," or "What is next?" For example: "How do I create a new account on Bing Chat?"
Procedural Questions
Procedural questions pertain to processes or methods. They often begin with words like "How to," "What is the process for," or "What is the method for." For example: "How to write a line of code in Python to find the sum of the first 10 numbers?"
Categorical Questions
Categorical questions are used to classify or sort information into groups or categories. They often begin with words like "Under which category," "In which group," or "Which type is this?" For example: "Which category does the book 'The Hobbit' belong to?"
Comparative Questions
Comparative questions involve comparing two or more things. They often begin with words like "Compare," "Which is better," or "What is the difference between?" For example: "Compare the features of the iPhone 13 and 14."
Analytical Questions
Analytical questions seek to analyze a situation or problem to identify underlying causes, effects, or patterns. They often begin with words like "Analyze," "What factors contribute to," or "How does this impact?" For example: "What factors contribute to climate change?"
Evaluative Questions
Evaluative questions involve assessing the worth, quality, or value of something. They often begin with words like "Assess," "Rate," or "Evaluate." For example: "Evaluate the effectiveness of a particular teaching method."
Prescriptive Questions
Prescriptive questions seek advice or guidance on a particular issue. They often begin with words like "Suggest," "What are your recommendations for," or "How should I proceed?" For example: "What are the best practices for managing a remote team?"
Hypothetical Questions
Hypothetical questions involve the exploration of hypothetical scenarios or situations. They often begin with words like "What if," "Suppose," or "Imagine." For example: "What if the world had no internet?"
Reflective Questions
Reflective questions are used to explore one's own thoughts, feelings, and experiences. They often begin with words like "What do you think about," "How do you feel," or "Reflect on your experience." For example: "Reflect on a time when you faced a challenging situation."
Knowing the types of questions can help you craft more precise inquiries and receive more accurate responses, whether you're interacting with a human or a knowledge-based system like Bing Chat. The new #no_search feature for Bing Chat, for example, will be particularly useful for certain types of questions where web searches don't always add value, such as coding or math problems.
