How to implement a wrapper for methods with a completion closure using async/await syntax?

To wrap a method with a completion handler into async/await, you can use withCheckedContinuation or withCheckedThrowingContinuation in Swift. This allows transforming an asynchronous method with a callback into a function that can be called with await.
Example:
func fetchData(completion: @escaping (Result<String, Error>) -> Void) {
// Asynchronous operation with completion
}
func fetchDataAsync() async throws -> String {
try await withCheckedThrowingContinuation { continuation in
fetchData { result in
switch result {
case .success(let data):
continuation.resume(returning: data)
case .failure(let error):
continuation.resume(throwing: error)
}
}
}
}
This approach simplifies working with asynchronous code and improves readability.
