## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Analyze this list of projects and tell me which ones are viable: [{'id': 'P1', 'expected_return': 0.15, 'required_capital': 100, 'risk': 0.05}, {'id': 'P2', 'expected_return': -0.05, 'required_capital': 50, 'risk': 0.1}]
```

**Response:** 
```
The viable projects are P1. Project P2 is excluded because it has a negative expected return.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Find the best project mix for a budget of 500 and a risk tolerance of 0.1 using these projects: [{'id': 'A', 'expected_return': 0.2, 'required_capital': 200, 'risk': 0.05}, {'id': 'B', 'expected_return': 0.25, 'required_capital': 350, 'risk': 0.15}]
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal mix includes project A. Total expected return is 0.2 with a total capital used of 200.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What happens to my portfolio if market volatility doubles?
```

**Response:** 
```
With a volatility multiplier of 2.0, your worst-case return is projected to be -12% and the probability of loss increases to 15%.
```
