# Technical term (Retrieve)

### Intro

An LLM can follow instructions via prompts. However, an LLM is more sensitive to "technical terms" rather than "general terms". The best way to get precise output is to use technical terms instead of general terms.

### How it work ?

We can change "general terms" into "technical terms" without adjusting other instructions.

``` python
def calculate_square_area (x, y) : 
  return x * y
```
Write unit test.
Return only code.
