hybrid spruce
I was noodling around with some simple code and noticed that the following executes out of procedural order, e.g. "the end" sometimes prints in the middle of the list.each execution. Can you help me understand why that is?
import gleam/io
import gleam/list
pub fn main() {
let my_name = "Bob"
io.println("Hello " <> my_name <> "! Welcome to the Gleam world.")
let my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
list.each(my_list, fn(x) { io.debug(x) })
io.println("This is the end, my friend.")
}

as far as I know stdout is non blocking and not necessarily synchronous

io.debug uses stderr, while io.println uses stdout, so they can sometimes come through in different orders.
If you need them to come through in a consistent order, you can use io.println with string.inspect, which returns the string representation of any Gleam value
Your code here isn't doing anything concurrent.

cool - thanks

looks like this applies (same thing but more technically explained): https://stackoverflow.com/a/45317939
