    <pre class="prettyprint source"><code>import map from &apos;async/map&apos;;</code></pre><p>Produces a new collection of values by mapping each value in <code>coll</code> through

<p>Note, that since this function applies the <code>iteratee</code> to each item in

in order. However, the results array will be in the same order as the
original <code>coll</code>.</p>
<p>If <code>map</code> is passed an Object, the results will be an Array.  The results
will roughly be in the order of the original Objects&apos; keys (but this can
vary across JavaScript engines).</p>

<p><strong>Note</strong> that while many implementations preserve the order of object

<p>The mechanics and order of enumerating the properties is not specified.</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint source"><code>import setImmediate from &apos;async/setImmediate&apos;;</code></pre><p>Calls <code>callback</code> on a later loop around the event loop. In Node.js this just
calls <code>setImmediate</code>.  In the browser it will use <code>setImmediate</code> if
available, otherwise <code>setTimeout(callback, 0)</code>, which means other higher
priority events may precede the execution of <code>callback</code>.</p>
