First Look at Reasoning From Scratch: Chapter 1

This article is the first chapter of a book exploring reasoning capabilities in Large Language Models (LLMs). It defines reasoning in the context of LLMs, explains how it differs from pattern matching, and introduces key concepts like chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning. The chapter lays the groundwork for future hands-on coding examples that will implement these reasoning techniques from scratch.
