INTRODUCTION
 Asynchronous programming in C# is an efficient approach for managing
activities that are blocked or delayed.
 Unlike synchronous processes, where blocking halts the entire process and
increases wait times, the asynchronous approach allows the application to
continue executing other tasks.
 The async and await keywords in C# are core to implementing
asynchronous programming.
PRINCIPAL OF ASYNCHRONY
 Focuses on writing long-running functions asynchronously, enabling
concurrency within the function itself, rather than externally.
Key Benefits:
1.I/O-Bound Concurrency: Enhances scalability and efficiency by
managing tasks without tying up threads.
2.Simplified Thread Safety: Reduces code complexity in rich-client
applications by minimizing worker threads.
ASYNC AND AWAIT
KEYWORDS
The Aysnc keyword:
 Used to define an asynchronous function.
 Allows a function to execute asynchronously without blocking the calling
thread.
Syntax:
public async void CallProcess()
{
// Async logic here
}
The Await keyword:
 Enables calling functions asynchronously within an async method.
 Pauses the execution of the calling method until the awaited task is
complete.
Example:
public static Task LongProcess()
{
return Task.Run(() =>
{
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000); // Simulating a delay
});
}

// Calling the process asynchronously


await LongProcess();
WORKED OUT EXAMPLE
Key points:
 Async Main: The Main method is marked as async so it can use await.
 Task Delay: Simulates a delay (e.g., for I/O-bound operations)
 Await: Suspends execution of the method until the asynchronous
operation is complete, without blocking the thread.
CONCLUSION
 Asynchronous programming allows applications to perform tasks without
blocking, enabling better use of system resources and improving
responsiveness.
 It keeps applications responsive, especially in scenarios involving long-
running tasks like I/O operations or API calls.
