Hello,
For the below code please can you tell me why the test code print("line 64") is being printed after the test code print("line 84") ? (i.e. how do I stop that happening?)
I would like the program to wait until the results array has been parsed before continuing the code (otherwise it does not have content to present).
I'm a bit confused why this is happening because I haven't written "async" anywhere.
