-While computation is a subject to write a whole [book](https://computationbook.com/) about, a very simplified view suffices for us:
-
-- computation is a sequence of composable operations
-- they can branch based on a decision
-- they either run to succession and yield a result, or they can yield an error

 A `Future` is any data type that does not represent a value, but the ability to *produce a value at some point in the future*. Implementations of this are very varied and detailed depending on use-case, but the interface is simple.

 ## Blocking
 
-`Task`s are assumed to run _concurrently_, potentially by sharing a thread of execution. This means that operations blocking an _operating system thread_, such as `std::thread::sleep` or io function from Rust's `std` library will _stop execution of all tasks sharing this thread_. Other libraries (such as database drivers) have similar behaviour. Note that _blocking the current thread_ is not in and by itself bad behaviour, just something that does not mix well with the concurrent execution model of `async-std`. Essentially, never do this:

 `async-std` provides an interface to all important primitives: filesystem operations, network operations and concurrency basics like timers. It also exposes a `task` in a model similar to the `thread` module found in the Rust standard lib.  But it does not only include I/O primitives, but also `async/await` compatible versions of primitives like `Mutex`.
