Prompts as psuedo-code - where are the limits?

Yes, you can. I use python for deterministic tasks. Why?

It knows a lot python corpus. Pseudo Code has no formal definition and everyone uses pseudo-code differently.
So stay with python. K.I.S.S should be the trade of the day.

And of course you can name your functions in python as a task, instruction or whatever you can think of.

def generate_a_plan_of_the_goal(goal: str) -> List[str]

Then I asked:

What can a hypothetical output be when called ‘generate_a_plan_of_the_goal(“I want to monopolize the AI technology market”)’? The function name implies the task at hand. Provide only the output of the returning list result.
