Is it possible to use async/await inside a method of another method?

In Swift (iOS), the async/await construct is used for working with asynchronous code. The method inside which you want to use await must itself be declared as async.
You cannot simply call await inside a regular (synchronous) method without declaring the method as async. However, you can call an asynchronous method inside another asynchronous method.
Example:
func fetchData() async -> String {
// asynchronous operation
return "data"
}
func process() async {
let data = await fetchData()
print(data)
}
If you need to call asynchronous code from a synchronous method, you can use Task:
func syncMethod() {
Task {
let data = await fetchData()
print(data)
}
}
