/**
* Defines a scope for new coroutines. Every coroutine builder
* is an extension on [CoroutineScope] and inherits its [coroutineContext][CoroutineScope.coroutineContext]
* to automatically propagate both context elements and cancellation.
*
* The best ways to obtain a standalone instance of the scope are [CoroutineScope()] and [MainScope()] factory functions.
* Additional context elements can be appended to the scope using the [plus][CoroutineScope.plus] operator.
*
* Manual implementation of this interface is not recommended, implementation by delegation should be preferred instead.
* By convention, the [context of a scope][CoroutineScope.coroutineContext] should contain an instance of a [job][Job] to enforce structured concurrency.
*
* Every coroutine builder (like [launch][CoroutineScope.launch], [async][CoroutineScope.async], etc)
* and every scoping function (like [coroutineScope], [withContext], etc) provides _its own_ scope
* with its own [Job] instance into the inner block of code it runs.
* By convention, they all wait for all the coroutines inside their block to complete before completing themselves,
* thus enforcing the discipline of **structured concurrency**.
*
* [CoroutineScope] should be implemented (or used as a field) on entities with a well-defined lifecycle that are responsible
* for launching children coroutines. Example of such entity on Android is Activity.
* Usage of this interface may look like this:
*
* ```
* class MyActivity : AppCompatActivity(), CoroutineScope by MainScope() {
* override fun onDestroy() {
* cancel() // cancel is extension on CoroutineScope
* }
*
* /*
* * Note how coroutine builders are scoped: if activity is destroyed or any of the launched coroutines
* * in this method throws an exception, then all nested coroutines are cancelled.
* */
* fun showSomeData() = launch { // <- extension on current activity, launched in the main thread
* // ... here we can use suspending functions or coroutine builders with other dispatchers
* draw(data) // draw in the main thread
* }
* }
* ```
*/

* By convention, should contain an instance of a [job][Job] to enforce structured concurrency.

* and are not cancelled prematurely.
* Another use of the global scope is operators running in [Dispatchers.Unconfined], which don't have any job associated with them.
*
* Application code usually should use an application-defined [CoroutineScope]. Using
* [async][CoroutineScope.async] or [launch][CoroutineScope.launch]
* on the instance of [GlobalScope] is highly discouraged.
*
* Usage of this interface may look like this:

* send(Math.sqrt(number))

/**
* Creates a [CoroutineScope] and calls the specified suspend block with this scope.
* The provided scope inherits its [coroutineContext][CoroutineScope.coroutineContext] from the outer scope, but overrides
* the context's [Job].
*
* This function is designed for _parallel decomposition_ of work. When any child coroutine in this scope fails,
* this scope fails and all the rest of the children are cancelled (for a different behavior see [supervisorScope]).
* This function returns as soon as the given block and all its children coroutines are completed.
* A usage example of a scope looks like this:
*
* ```
* suspend fun showSomeData() = coroutineScope {
*
* val data = async(Dispatchers.IO) { // <- extension on current scope
* ... load some UI data for the Main thread ...
* }
*
* withContext(Dispatchers.Main) {
* doSomeWork()
* val result = data.await()
* display(result)
* }
* }
* ```
*
* The scope in this example has the following semantics:
* 1) `showSomeData` returns as soon as the data is loaded and displayed in the UI.
* 2) If `doSomeWork` throws an exception, then the `async` task is cancelled and `showSomeData` rethrows that exception.
* 3) If the outer scope of `showSomeData` is cancelled, both started `async` and `withContext` blocks are cancelled.
* 4) If the `async` block fails, `withContext` will be cancelled.
*
* The method may throw a [CancellationException] if the current job was cancelled externally
* or may throw a corresponding unhandled [Throwable] if there is any unhandled exception in this scope
* (for example, from a crashed coroutine that was started with [launch][CoroutineScope.launch] in this scope).
