A little riddle with AsyncLocal
Children have a very accurate sense of curiosity. For them, everything is new and the smallest things can trigger the spark of wanting to know more and understand what something is. This is more commonly called Curiosity.
“We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.” — Lloyd Alexander
Much like children’s curiosity spark can be triggered with a new awesome monocular enabling them hours and hours of fun, a Software Engineer like myself can have this same spark triggered by a couple of simple lines of code.
Some weeks ago, I was debugging my code and I came across one of these situations where I felt like a child that just got a new awesome toy. I was struck by curiosity wanting to know how some simple lines of code I had on my screen worked.
For the sake of simplicity, I made this simple code snippet that can illustrate the code and its behavior. And now I have a challenge for you reading this blogpost! Can you know what will be printed in the console after running these simple lines of code?
