lab8.2 async serial exec with util modul

Hello,
In the lab 8.2 we have to run serialy (i am not sure we say like it, means serial execution) 3 async func.
I guess we should use "Promisify" as the util module is already import in the question.
But i don't get how to use it.
i can run the code without promisify
opA((err, d) => { print(err, d) opB((e, d) => { print(e, d) opC((e,d) => { print(e, d) }) }) })
i can run it with promise
function read(x) { return new Promise((resolve, reject) => { x((e,d) => { if(e) reject(print(e)) resolve(print(null, d)) }) }) } async function as() { await read(opA) await read(opB) await read(opC) } as()
But i don t understand how to run it with Promisify ???
i can promisify,
const a = promisify(opA) const b = promisify(opB) const c = promisify(opC)
But it does not work inside async/await, and it does not resolve, so i can not use .then().
So what am i missing, what is the point of promisify here ??
Using it with function returning promise like readFile(), i understand how it works. But in this case, using it with call-back, i don t.
Thanks if someone can explain.
Regards
ps; the code to run
const { promisify } = require('util') const print = (err, contents) => { if (err) console.error(err) else console.log(contents) } const opA = (cb) => { setTimeout(() => { cb(null, 'A') }, 500) } const opB = (cb) => { setTimeout(() => { cb(null, 'B') }, 250) } const opC = (cb) => { setTimeout(() => { cb(null, 'C') }, 125) }

I think the error handling is the part that's tripping you up:
SPOILERS - see for code
Given your `a`, `b` and `c` references: ``` async function as() { try { print(null, await a()) print(null, await b()) print(null, await c()) } catch (err) { print(err) } } ```When an awaited promise rejects in an async function it can be handled in a catch block.
In the above only the first to error will print and then execution will stop. If you wanted
to proceed if there's an error then you'd need to try catch each one. Either way is fine
