Trying to figure out what

coroutineScope

function is doing. How come we can’t hit

myDeferred2

line without waiting 7secs. Shouldn’t myDeferred2 get scheduled as soon as

myDeferred1

is suspended?

viewModelScope.launch {

            val myDeferred1 = coroutineScope {
                delay(7000)
            }
            val myDeferred2 = coroutineScope {
                delay(2000)
            }
}

https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines/issues/1103 A lot of people are confused by the naming of this function.
