When should I use callbacks instead of promises?

Callbacks are useful for simple tasks, but promises are better for handling asynchronous operations more elegantly.

Can you give me an example of a situation where a callback is preferred?

Sure! Callbacks are often used in event handling, like when a user clicks a button.

What about promises? When are they more beneficial?

Promises are beneficial when you have multiple asynchronous operations that depend on each other, as they help avoid callback hell.

Is it possible to mix callbacks and promises?

Yes, you can mix them, but it's important to manage them carefully to avoid confusion and maintain code readability.
