✅ Why is an explicit cast needed even though the implicit cast operator is available?

This works:

C#
(float, float) variable = new Complex(1, 0);

C#
(float, float) variable = new Complex(1, 0);

I think it's because the syntax var (x, y) is deconstruction syntax, so it will try to call a destructor

✅ Confused about Asynchronous Programming

I haven't worked much with WinForms, but if I recall correctly, it never awaits your event handlers. So the UI can be processed asynchronously while the task is busy.

✅ Confused about Asynchronous Programming

You're right, using await immediately after getting a task object does not make that code asynchronous. That code at the end is almost correct, but I think it should be like this:

C#
static async Task Main()
{
    Task task = someTask();
    Console.WriteLine(1);
    await task;
}

static async Task someTask()
{
    // Do something
    await someOtherTask();
    // Do something else
    Console.WriteLine(2);
}

C#
static async Task Main()
{
    Task task = someTask();
    Console.WriteLine(1);
    await task;
}

static async Task someTask()
{
    // Do something
    await someOtherTask();
    // Do something else
    Console.WriteLine(2);
}
