std::async
Explore how std::async facilitates asynchronous function calls in Modern C++. Understand how it handles thread creation and lifetime, returns futures for result management, and supports eager or lazy evaluation based on launch policies. Learn to optimize multithreading workflows efficiently.

Introduction
std::async behaves similar to an asynchronous function call. This function call takes a callable together with its arguments. std::async is a variadic template and can, therefore, take an arbitrary number of arguments. The call to std::async returns a future object fut. That’s your handle for getting the result via fut.get().
