rustHow to create an async thread pool in Rust?

Creating an async thread pool in Rust is easy with the help of the tokio crate.

use tokio::runtime::Runtime;

let mut rt = Runtime::new().unwrap();
let pool = rt.executor();

This code creates a thread pool with the default number of threads.

1. use tokio::runtime::Runtime: imports the Runtime struct from the tokio crate.
2. let mut rt = Runtime::new().unwrap(): creates a new Runtime instance and stores it in rt.
3. let pool = rt.executor(): creates a thread pool from the Runtime instance and stores it in pool.
