Hi all,
Deno is JavaScript runtime that has very nice feature like Top Level Await, I think it would be also nice to have such feature in Python, it will make using async/await more convenient
What do you think ? Share your ideas lets discuss ...

I don't know what to think because I don't know what "top level await" means to you. Can you show an example of what it would look like, how you would use it, and *why* you would use it?
Can you show a simple example of a task that would be better with top level await, and why it is better?
I mean to be able to do something like this: ```python import asyncio
await asyncio.sleep(1); ```
The proposal is to add a default event loop that is always active.

If it's for the REPL, it's already there, you simply need to start the async REPL.
$ python -m asyncio asyncio REPL 3.8.5 | packaged by conda-forge | (default, Sep 16 2020, 17:43:11) [Clang 10.0.1 ] on darwin Use "await" directly instead of "asyncio.run()". Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import asyncio await asyncio.sleep(1)
compile and exec have a mode to allow top-level async as well if you want it programmatically, then you can `await` your code object.
It is not the same, it will work in interactive mode .... But I want to run application without interactive mode

Sorry - previous reply was sent empty.
So, you probably can do with `asyncio.run`: ``` In [26]: import asyncio
In [27]: asyncio.run(asyncio.sleep(2)) ``` https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.run
