Is it possible to stop the execution of a scheduled operation deferred with Deferred?

In Android, when it comes to the Deferred class from Kotlin Coroutines, a scheduled deferred operation can be canceled by calling the cancel() method on the Deferred object. This will stop the execution of the coroutine if it has not yet completed.

Example:

val deferred = GlobalScope.async {
    // some long-running operation
}

// Cancel the operation
deferred.cancel()

Therefore, yes, the execution of a deferred operation represented by Deferred can be stopped using cancellation.
