What are context managers in asynchronous programming?

Can you explain what context managers are in asynchronous programming?

Sure! Context managers in asynchronous programming are used to manage resources, ensuring they are properly acquired and released.

How do they differ from regular context managers?

The main difference is that async context managers use the 'async with' syntax, allowing for asynchronous operations within the context.

Can you give me an example of an async context manager?

Certainly! Here's a simple example:

import asyncio

class AsyncContextManager:
    async def __aenter__(self):
        print('Entering the context')
        return self

    async def __aexit__(self, exc_type, exc_val, exc_tb):
        print('Exiting the context')

async def main():
    async with AsyncContextManager():
        print('Inside the context')

asyncio.run(main())
