Task
In this page:
Task
Task represents an asynchronous operation that doesn't produce a value, similar to how void methods don't return one synchronously. You can await a Task to know when it finishes, or use Task.Run to offload CPU-bound work to a background thread. Tasks can be composed with Task.WhenAll and Task.WhenAny.
Note: Task.Run(() => ...) is for CPU-bound work; await alone is enough for naturally asynchronous I/O.
Example: Task
using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
class Program
{
static async Task DoWorkAsync()
{
await Task.Delay(50);
Console.WriteLine("Work done");
}
static async Task Main(string[] args)
{
Task t1 = DoWorkAsync();
Task t2 = DoWorkAsync();
await Task.WhenAll(t1, t2);
Console.WriteLine("Both tasks finished");
}
