How do I use C++20 coroutines?

C++20 introduces coroutines, which enable writing asynchronous code more naturally using `co_await`, `co_yield`, and `co_return` keywords. Coroutines allow functions to suspend execution to wait for some work to complete, which can improve performance for I/O-bound tasks.

Using C++20 Coroutines

Here's a simple example demonstrating how to use coroutines in C++20:

#include <iostream> #include <coroutine> struct simple_coroutine { struct promise_type { simple_coroutine get_return_object() { return {}; } auto initial_suspend() { return std::suspend_always{}; } auto final_suspend() noexcept { return std::suspend_always{}; } void unhandled_exception() { std::terminate(); } void return_void() {} }; bool resume() { // Logic to resume the coroutine return true; } }; simple_coroutine my_coroutine() { std::cout << "Hello, "; co_await std::suspend_always{}; std::cout << "World!" << std::endl; } int main() { auto coro = my_coroutine(); coro.resume(); // Prints "Hello, " coro.resume(); // Prints "World!" return 0; }
