Asynchronous programming is commonly employed for efficient implementation of network interactions in C++. The essence of this approach lies in the fact that the results of socket read/write functions are not immediately available but become accessible after some time. This approach allows for loading the processor with useful work during the wait for data. Various implementations of this approach exist, such as callbacks, actors, future/promise, coroutines. In C++, these implementations... Read more ›

The Python language has two kind of functions - normal functions that you would use in most cases, and async functions. The latter functions are used when performing network IO in an asynchronous manner. The problem with this division is that async functions can only be called from other async functions. Normal functions, on the other hand, can be called from any functions - however, if you call a normal... Read more ›
