Asynchronous programming is one of the major concepts in concurrency specifically, and in programming in general. However, it is quite a complex concept that can be considerably challenging for us to sometimes differentiate it from other programming models. In this section, we will be comparing asynchronous programming with synchronous programming and other concurrent programming models that we have seen (that is, threading and multiprocessing).
Asynchronous versus other programming models
Asynchronous versus synchronous programming
Again, asynchronous programming is fundamentally different from synchronous programming because of its task-switching nature. In synchronous programming, the instructions of a program are executed...
