Synchronous:
- Synchronous is a line-by-line execution process.
- New operation will not run until the previous one is completed.It is a single threaded programming language.
- It follows a blocking execution model.
- The order of execution is easily predictable.
- Long running tasks stop the entire program.
- Easy to read and debug due to its sequential order.
- Browser user interface may freeze or slow during heavy synchronous tasks.
console.log("Morning");
console.log("Afternoon");
console.log("Night");
Asynchronous:
- Asynchronous able to keep running program without waiting for the current task to finish.
- It follows a non-blocking execution model.
- It uses callbacks, Promises, and async/await.
- It is mainly used in API calls,timers and file reading.
- Execution order is not always linear.
- It improves performance and responsiveness.
- In asynchronous, Promises help to avoid callback hell.
console.log("Morning");
setTimeout(() => {
console.log("Afternoon");
}, 1000);
console.log("Night");
