JavaScript is a single-threaded language. That means it can have one call stack at a given time (take one thread = one call stack). Furthermore, it implies that JavaScript cannot do more than two things at a time. Or can it?
When you call a function, you step inside that function. This function is added to the call stack. When the function returns a value, the function is popped from the call stack.

const page1 = $.syncHTTP('http://example.com/page1');const page2 = $.syncHTTP('http://example.com/page2');const page3 = $.syncHTTP('http://example.com/page3');const page4 = $.syncHTTP('http://example.com/page4');console.log(page1, page2, page3, page4);
For the sake of simplicity, consider $.syncHTTP ...
