# Module kotlinx-coroutines-core
Core primitives to work with coroutines.
Coroutine builder functions:
| **Name** | **Result** | **Scope** | **Description**
| ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [launch][kotlinx.coroutines.launch] | [Job][kotlinx.coroutines.Job] | [CoroutineScope][kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineScope] | Launches coroutine that does not have any result
| [async][kotlinx.coroutines.async] | [Deferred][kotlinx.coroutines.Deferred] | [CoroutineScope][kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineScope] | Returns a single value with the future result
| [produce][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.produce] | [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [ProducerScope][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ProducerScope] | Produces a stream of elements
| [runBlocking][kotlinx.coroutines.runBlocking] | `T` | [CoroutineScope][kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineScope] | Blocks the thread while the coroutine runs
Coroutine dispatchers implementing [CoroutineDispatcher]:
| **Name** | **Description**
| ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [Dispatchers.Default][kotlinx.coroutines.Dispatchers.Default] | Confines coroutine execution to a shared pool of background threads
| [Dispatchers.Unconfined][kotlinx.coroutines.Dispatchers.Unconfined] | Does not confine coroutine execution in any way
More context elements:
| **Name** | **Description**
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [NonCancellable][kotlinx.coroutines.NonCancellable] | A non-cancelable job that is always active
| [CoroutineExceptionHandler][kotlinx.coroutines.CoroutineExceptionHandler] | Handler for uncaught exception
Synchronization primitives for coroutines:
| **Name** | **Suspending functions** | **Description**
| ----------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [Mutex][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex] | [lock][kotlinx.coroutines.sync.Mutex.lock] | Mutual exclusion
| [Channel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.Channel] | [send][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.send], [receive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.receive] | Communication channel (aka queue or exchanger)
Top-level suspending functions:
| **Name** | **Description**
| --------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------
| [delay][kotlinx.coroutines.delay] | Non-blocking sleep
| [yield][kotlinx.coroutines.yield] | Yields thread in single-threaded dispatchers
| [withContext][kotlinx.coroutines.withContext] | Switches to a different context
| [withTimeout][kotlinx.coroutines.withTimeout] | Set execution time-limit with exception on timeout
| [withTimeoutOrNull][kotlinx.coroutines.withTimeoutOrNull] | Set execution time-limit will null result on timeout
| [awaitAll][kotlinx.coroutines.awaitAll] | Awaits for successful completion of all given jobs or exceptional completion of any
| [joinAll][kotlinx.coroutines.joinAll] | Joins on all given jobs
Cancellation support for user-defined suspending functions is available with [suspendCancellableCoroutine]
helper function. [NonCancellable] job object is provided to suppress cancellation with
`withContext(NonCancellable) {...}` block of code.
[Select][kotlinx.coroutines.selects.select] expression waits for the result of multiple suspending functions simultaneously:
| **Receiver** | **Suspending function** | **Select clause** | **Non-suspending version**
| ------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------
| [Job][kotlinx.coroutines.Job] | [join][kotlinx.coroutines.Job.join] | [onJoin][kotlinx.coroutines.Job.onJoin] | [isCompleted][kotlinx.coroutines.Job.isCompleted]
| [Deferred][kotlinx.coroutines.Deferred] | [await][kotlinx.coroutines.Deferred.await] | [onAwait][kotlinx.coroutines.Deferred.onAwait] | [isCompleted][kotlinx.coroutines.Job.isCompleted]
| [SendChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel] | [send][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.send] | [onSend][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.onSend] | [trySend][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.SendChannel.trySend]
| [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [receive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.receive] | [onReceive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.onReceive] | [tryReceive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.tryReceive]
| [ReceiveChannel][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel] | [receiveCatching][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.receiveCatching] | [onReceiveCatching][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.onReceiveCatching] | [tryReceive][kotlinx.coroutines.channels.ReceiveChannel.tryReceive]
| none | [delay][kotlinx.coroutines.delay] | [onTimeout][kotlinx.coroutines.selects.SelectBuilder.onTimeout] | none
