callback function examples

Example 1: what are callback functions

// A function which accepts another function as an argument
// (and will automatically invoke that function when it completes - note that there is no explicit call to callbackFunction)
funct printANumber(int number, funct callbackFunction) {
    printout("The number you provided is: " + number);
}

// a function which we will use in a driver function as a callback function
funct printFinishMessage() {
    printout("I have finished printing numbers.");
}

// Driver method
funct event() {
   printANumber(6, printFinishMessage);
}

Example 2: callback function

//Callback functions - are functions that are called AFTER something happened

  const foo = (number, callbackFunction) => {
    //first 
    console.log(number)
    
    //second - runs AFTER console.log() happened
    callbackFunction()
  }
