How does asynchronous code work in JavaScript?

Can you explain how asynchronous code works in JavaScript?

Sure! Asynchronous code in JavaScript allows operations to run in the background, enabling the main thread to continue executing.

What are some common methods to handle asynchronous code?

Common methods include callbacks, promises, and async/await syntax. Each has its own use cases and benefits.

Can you give me an example of using async/await?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

async function fetchData() {
    const response = await fetch('https://api.example.com/data');
    const data = await response.json();
    console.log(data);
}

What happens if an error occurs in an async function?

If an error occurs, you can handle it using try/catch blocks around your await calls to catch any exceptions.
