run myfunc() while const response = await fetch(`/summarize?url=${encodeuricomponent(text)}`) is running in javascript

In JavaScript, when you are performing an asynchronous operation using await, the code execution will pause until the asynchronous operation is complete, and the response is returned. In this case, if you want to run another function myfunc() while waiting for the response to fetch to complete, you have to perform concurrent operations.

One way to achieve concurrency in JavaScript is to use setTimeout function, which allows you to run a function after a certain period of time. You can use setTimeout function to run myfunc() after a certain period of time, while the code execution waits for the fetch response.

Here is an example implementation:

const responsePromise = fetch(`/summarize?url=${encodeURIComponent(text)}`);
// start the fetch request and get a promise object

setTimeout(myfunc, 1000); // run myfunc() after 1 second

const response = await responsePromise; // await response after 1 second
// continue with the code execution

In this example, myfunc() will be executed after 1 second, while the code execution waits for the fetch response. Once the response is returned, the code execution will continue from the next line of await statement.
