function addAsync(no1, no2, cb) { process.nextTick(function() { res = no1 + no2; cb(null, res); }); }; addAsync(1, 2, function(err, res) { console.log(res); }); in order to queue the *intensive CPU operation of adding two numbers* for the next tick in the event loop.. 2012/6/6 Oliver Leics <oliver.le...@gmail.com> > On Wed, Jun 6, 2012 at 3:31 PM, Anand George <mranandgeo...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > When I run this code I get the following output. > > > > 3 > > 6 > > 3. > > > > Any ideas why this could be happening. > > This happens because the code does what it has to do. > > > It's forcing the calling function to run again. > > I don't understand that.
