What is the purpose of the "await" keyword in Avaloq Script?

The "await" keyword in Avaloq Script is used to pause execution until a promise resolves. This is particularly important within asynchronous programming, where you may be working with operations that take time to complete, such as fetching data from a server or processing information that needs to be awaited before moving on to the next line of code. When you use "await" in front of a promise, the execution of the function is halted at that point until the promise is either resolved or rejected, allowing for cleaner, more readable code without excessive callback nesting. This helps maintain the flow of the program and manage asynchronous events effectively, making it a powerful tool for developers working with Avaloq Script. Other options do not align with this functionality, as they pertain to variable declaration, function creation, and exception handling rather than the specific role of "await."
