Pybricks supports cooperative multitasking using the async and await keywords. This allows operations that normally take some time to complete to run in parallel with other operations.
pybricks_blockMultiTask
pybricks.tools.multitask
pybricks.tools.run_task
The following example shows how to use multitasking to make a robot drive forward, then turn and move a gripper at the same time, and then drive backward.
../../../examples/pup/robotics/drivebase_async.py
Whenever you see a function or method prefixed by await, this means that it supports multitasking. When running a coroutine with run_task, all methods and functions prefixed by await will act as coroutines.
If you don't use multitasking, you can ignore the await keyword and write programs as usual. Specifically, when run_task is not used, functions prefixed by await will act as normal functions.
