The Future class in Dart
The article discusses the Future class in Dart, which is essential for handling asynchronous programming. It explains various methods associated with the Future class, such as Future.delayed(), Future.microtask(), and Future.value(). These methods facilitate the execution of asynchronous tasks without blocking the event loop.
- ▪The Future class is the main abstraction for concurrency and asynchronous programming in Dart.
- ▪Future.delayed() allows for the execution of a function after a specified delay, useful for creating asynchronous sleep functions.
- ▪Future.microtask() schedules a computation as a micro task, ensuring its execution before other asynchronous tasks.
