<i>All JavaScript environments use an event loop</i>
All JavaScript environments use an event loop

As long as there’s something left to do, JSs event loop will keep spinning. Whenever an event occurs, JS invokes any callbacks (event handlers) that are listening for that event.

<i>There’s an endless loop, when JavaScript engine waits for tasks, executes them and then sleeps waiting for more tasks</i>

Este es el código:

function multiply(x,y) {
  // console.trace imprime una traza de la pila
  console.trace("-----------At multiply-----------");
  return x * y;
}

function squared(n) {
  console.trace("-----------At squared-----------");
  return multiply(n,n)
}

function printSquare(n) {
   return squared(n)
}

let numberSquared = printSquare(5);
console.log(numberSquared);

Sacado de:

(function() {

  console.log('this is the start');

  setTimeout(function cb() {
    console.log('Callback 1: this is a msg from call back');
  }); // has a default time value of 0

  console.log('this is just a message');

  setTimeout(function cb1() {
    console.log('Callback 2: this is a msg from call back');

Splitting CPU Hungry Tasks

See https://javascript.info/event-loop#use-case-1-splitting-cpu-hungry-tasks

To demonstrate the approach, for the sake of simplicity, let’s take a function that counts from 1 to a big number.

If you run the code below with a very large number, the engine will hang for some time.

When running it in-browser, try to click other buttons on the page – you’ll see that no other events get handled until the counting finishes.

let i = 0;

let start = Date.now();

function count() {

  // do a heavy job
  for (let j = 0; j < 1e9; j++) {
    i++;
  }

  alert("Done in " + (Date.now() - start) + 'ms');
}

count();

We can evade problems by splitting the big task into pieces. Do the first piece, then schedule setTimeout (with zero-delay) to do the next piece, and so on.

    alert("Done in " + (Date.now() - start) + 'ms');
  } else {
    setTimeout(() => count(task, condition)); // schedule the new call (**)
