Operations Order with Asynchronous JavaScript

  • JavaScript's Event Loop allows handling asynchronous operations without blocking the main execution thread.
  • Understanding the correct order of logs in scenarios involving synchronous and asynchronous operations is crucial for JavaScript developers.
  • The popular problem of determining log order in a given code snippet involves console.log, setTimeout, and Promises.
  • The expected order for the given code snippet is: First, Fourth, Third, Second.
  • Despite code order, asynchronous operations like setTimeout and Promises are processed based on JavaScript's event-driven model.
  • console.log('First') is a synchronous operation executed immediately.
  • setTimeout is asynchronous and scheduled in the Callback Queue after the synchronous code.
  • Promises are part of the Microtask Queue and have higher priority than Macrotasks.
  • The 'Third' log from the Promise is handled once the current synchronous code finishes.
  • console.log('Fourth') is another synchronous operation executed after the Promise.
  • Operation order in JavaScript involves synchronous code execution, draining of Microtask Queue, and processing Macrotasks.
