i tried to get it to write a web scraper but the code wasn't very good. so i fed it the html and told it to write some code that outputs the results in a certain way. the code was still not good. then i input some code that i had already written to do this exact task, including a print statement at the end. then i asked it for the results of the print statement. it printed the right information and the original structure i told it.
it was wild. at first i thought that i had somehow made it run code then i realized that it was able to logically produce the result, kinda like how i can read code and surmise the outcome. maybe? i have no idea.
unfortunately i closed out the session and forgot what exactly i had said to do this, because i tried to keep doing it again but it told me that it couldn't run code.
