Console.WriteLine("Starting operation...");
string result = await PerformLongOperationAsync();
Console.WriteLine($"Operation completed with result: {result}");
Console.WriteLine("Main method finished.");
}
public static async Task<string> PerformLongOperationAsync()
{
Console.WriteLine("Performing a long operation (simulated)...");
