You may have heard the phrases ‘continuous passing style’ and ‘state machine’ applied to coroutines, but not understood what they are or how they work. In this course, Kotlin Coroutines Deep Dive, you’ll learn to communicate between coroutines using hot and cold streams of data. First, you’ll explore how to transfer data from a ‘hot’ data source using coroutine channels. Next, you’ll discover using flows to set up a cold data source. Finally, you’ll learn how to exchange data using channels and flows. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of coroutines needed to compose asynchronous and event-based programs.

His first job had him writing batch PL/1 on an IBM mainframe where he also discovered the arcane delights of JCL. He soon realized the multiuser systems were not for him after discovering the delights of dBase IV on IBM PCs. From here it was all downhill as he became addicted to C and the Windows API.
