/// Spawns a task and blocks the current thread on its result.

/// Calling this function is similar to [spawning] a thread and immediately [joining] it, except an
/// asynchronous task will be spawned.
///
/// See also: [`task::spawn_blocking`].
///
/// [`task::spawn_blocking`]: fn.spawn_blocking.html
///
/// [spawning]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/thread/fn.spawn.html
/// [joining]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/thread/struct.JoinHandle.html#method.join
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```no_run
/// use async_std::task;
///
/// fn main() {
/// task::block_on(async {
/// println!("Hello, world!");
/// })
/// }
/// ```
/// Spawns a task and waits for it to finish.
