I´ll send you request :)

[@raychen4458]

want to see more real world examples of using detached tasks !!!

[@iOSAcademy]

Coming soon

[@baievertebagscompany]

I have zero idea what this is, so I was intrigued so I clicked to view.

[@portoalex]

Thanks, with these new ways to set up code I always take a long time to actually understand which context to actually use it, do you plan on making simple examples with usage closer to real projects?

[@iOSAcademy]

Glad it was helpful! And yes

[@MassimilianoBonafede]

If you try to give some delays to the operation inside the printAsync function and you will add two printAsync inside the Task.detached at least one method (inside Task.detached) will be executed after the go method finishes. Can you explain why?

[@benjiashamole610]

How are you able to call thing.printAsync before you instantiate thing??

[@ix901x]

Great video!, if you create a course about Await/Async Concurrency I will be interested

[@iOSAcademy]

Great suggestion!

[@AmitBiswastunebox]

Well explained. Hi Afraz can you please make a tutorial on “ State Machine Design in Swift” ?

[@iOSAcademy]

Sure thing

[@AmitBiswastunebox]

@@iOSAcademy Thank You Afraz

[@ChristopherCricketWallace]

can these async tasks return a value? Can a background task return a value?

[@itoptisweets9001]

Спасибо! Продолжай в том же духе! =)

[@iOSAcademy]

Youre welcome

thanks

What if you change the priority of the detached task? I am guessing if it is a higher priority you might get 1,2,3

[@iOSAcademy]

Correct

[@jiajiu1631]

why I get the result like this? 1 2 3 , not 1 3 2 class Thing { init() {} func printAsync(_ string: String) async { print(string) } func go() async { await thing.printAsync("thing 1") Task.detached(priority: .background) { await self.printAsync("thing 2") } await thing.printAsync("thing 3") } } let thing = Thing() Task { await thing.go() }
