YUART - How to implement this code in Spawn?...

How to implement this code in Spawn? 
// V's model of concurrency is going to be very similar to Go's.
// Learn more about concurrency in the documentation:
// https://docs.spawnlang.dev/concepts/concurrency.html
import time

fn task(id int, duration int) {
    println('task ${id} begin')
    time.sleep(duration * time.millisecond)
    println('task ${id} end')
}

fn main() {
    // []thread is a special type that represents an array of threads
    mut threads := []thread{}

    // `spawn` starts a new thread and returns a `thread` object
    // that can be added in thread array.
    threads << spawn task(1, 500)
    threads << spawn task(2, 900)
    threads << spawn task(3, 100)

    // `wait` is special function that waits for all threads to finish.
    threads.wait()

    println('done')

Solution:
Correct Spawn code is ``` // Spawn's model of concurrency is going to be very similar to Go's. // Learn more about concurrency in the documentation:...

Use t.assert_eq instead assert
YUART

Oh sorry I'm stupid
Petr

assert is not implemented yet

Not tha code 😅 I updated the code I want to implement in Spawn

Use runtime.Handle as array type And you need to call join in loop on this array of handles

Ok, trying

module main

import time
import runtime

fn task(id i32, duration i32) {
    println('task ${id} begin')
    time.sleep(duration * time.MILLISECOND)
    println('task ${id} end')
}

fn main() {
    // []thread is a special type that represents an array of threads
    mut threads := []runtime.Handle{}

    // `spawn` starts a new thread and returns a `thread` object
    // that can be added in thread array.
    threads << spawn task(1, 500)
    threads << spawn task(2, 900)
    threads << spawn task(3, 100)

    for thread in threads {
        thread.join()
    }

    println('done')

oops. you need runtime.Handle[unit] and push instead << can you create an issue for this case? we need an error about not instantiated use of generic struct []runtime.Handle{}

Correct Spawn code is

module main

import time
import runtime

fn task(id i32, duration u64) {
    println('task ${id} begin')
    time.sleep(duration * time.MILLISECOND)
    println('task ${id} end')
}

fn main() {
    // []runtime.Handle[unit] is a special type that represents an array of threads
    mut threads := []&runtime.Handle[unit]{}

    // `spawn` starts a new thread and returns a `runtime.Handle[unit]` object

    threads.push(spawn task(1, 500))

btw this particular example has nothing similar to the Go model as stated in the comment 😄
