python3.5中的async/await关键字是否受到C中async/await的启发？

Question

python3.5中的async/await（语法和关键字）与C中的async/await非常相似。在

C#示例：

async void asyncTask(){
    await asyncMethod()
}

Python示例：

^{pr2}$

问题：python3.5中的async/await是否受到C中async/await的启发？如果是，为什么？在

Answer 1

在PEP 492（建议添加await和{}关键字）中，mentioned是C使用它们的（除其他外）：

Why "async" and "await" keywords

async/await is not a new concept in programming languages:

• C# has it since long time ago [5];
• proposal to add async/await in ECMAScript 7 [2]; see also Traceur project [9];
• Facebook's Hack/HHVM [6];
• Google's Dart language [7];
• Scala [8];
• proposal to add async/await to C++ [10];
• and many other less popular languages.

This is a huge benefit, as some users already have experience with async/await, and because it makes working with many languages in one project easier (Python with ECMAScript 7 for instance).

（重点是我的）

所以关键字名称确实是受到C（和其他语言）的启发，至于“为什么”也在最后一段中解释了。在
