//
// The real power of async shows when you launch MULTIPLE tasks!
//
// With io.async(), you can start several operations, then await
// them all. The Io backend may run them concurrently:
//
//     var f1 = io.async(taskA, .{});
//     defer _ = f1.cancel(io);
//     var f2 = io.async(taskB, .{});
//     defer _ = f2.cancel(io);
//     const a = f1.await(io);
//     const b = f2.await(io);
//
// Notice the defer pattern: each async call is immediately
// followed by a defer cancel. This ensures cleanup even if
// we return early or hit an error before reaching await.
// Since await/cancel are idempotent, the defer is harmless
// if we've already awaited.
//
// Fix this program to launch both tasks and collect their results.
//

    var future_b = ???(slowMul, .{ 6, 7 });
    defer _ = future_b.cancel(io);

    const sum = future_a.await(io);
    const product = future_b.await(io);
