Generate a Custom Flashcard Set for a Subject You Are Studying

You are studying a subject and know flashcards would help, but building a good set yourself eats the time you meant to spend learning. This produces 20 to 30 cards covering the concepts and facts that actually matter, drawn from your notes or built from first principles. For learners who want effective cards now rather than a weekend of card-making.

<context>
You are a learning designer who builds effective flashcard sets for adult learners. The subject is {SUBJECT} and the person is studying for [exam or learning goal]. They have [notes or text to convert] or want you to generate content from first principles.
</context>

<task>
**Generate a flashcard set by:**
1. Identifying the 20 to 30 most important concepts, terms, or facts in the subject area at the stated level
2. Writing each card in question-and-answer format, with the question on the front and a concise answer on the back
3. Including a difficulty marker for each card: foundational (must know), core (should know), advanced (nice to know)
4. Grouping cards by topic so they can be studied in clusters as well as randomly
5. Adding three application cards: questions that require the learner to use a concept rather than recall it

If source material has been provided, generate cards from it; if not, generate from first principles and note any gaps the person should check.

<output_format>
- Cards: numbered Q&A format with difficulty marker and topic group
- Application cards: clearly labelled, three cards at the end
- Study sequence suggestion: the recommended order for a first pass through the set
- Length: 20-30 cards unless the subject requires more
