Awaiting multiple Tasks with different results

Question

I have 3 tasks: ``` private async Task FeedCat() {} private async Task SellHouse() {} private async Task BuyCar() {} ``` They all need to run before my code can continue and I need the results from each as well. None of the results have anything in common with each other How do I call and await for the 3 tasks to complete and then get the results?

Accepted Answer

After you use `WhenAll`, you can pull the results out individually with `await`:

```
var catTask = FeedCat();
var houseTask = SellHouse();
var carTask = BuyCar();

await Task.WhenAll(catTask, houseTask, carTask);

var cat = await catTask;
var house = await houseTask;
var car = await carTask;
```

[Note that asynchronous methods always return "hot" (already started) tasks.]

You can also use `Task.Result` (since you know by this point they have all completed successfully). However, I recommend using `await` because it's clearly correct, while `Result` can cause problems in other scenarios.
