javascript async delay

function delay(ms) {
  return new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, ms));
}

async function exampleAsyncFunction() {
  console.log('Start of async function');

  await delay(2000); // Delay for 2000 milliseconds (2 seconds)

  console.log('After 2 seconds');

  await delay(3000); // Delay for an additional 3000 milliseconds (3 seconds)

  console.log('After another 3 seconds');
}

exampleAsyncFunction();

1. Define a function named delay that returns a promise, which resolves after a specified time delay.

2. Create an asynchronous function named exampleAsyncFunction.

3. Log a message indicating the start of the async function.

4. Use the await keyword to pause execution of the async function for 2000 milliseconds using the delay function.

5. Log a message indicating that 2 seconds have passed.

6. Use the await keyword again to pause execution for an additional 3000 milliseconds using the delay function.

7. Log a message indicating that another 3 seconds have passed.

8. Call the exampleAsyncFunction to execute the asynchronous function.
