Research direction

The sentence is in docs/csharp/asynchronous-programming/async-return-types.md in the dotnet/docs repository. Find the paragraph that describes the await expression in the ShowTodaysInfo method and check each mention of ShowTodaysInfo and GetLeisureHours against the method names used in that article's code sample. Add the Async suffix where the sample's method is named that way, then confirm the surrounding text still reads correctly. Done when the prose matches the sample's method names.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

:watch: Not Triaged async-task-programming/subsvc dotnet-csharp/svc
Type of issue

Typo

Description

The original sentence:

When GetLeisureHoursAsync is called from within an await expression in the **ShowTodaysInfo** method, the await expression retrieves the integer value (the value of leisureHours) stored in the task returned by the **GetLeisureHours** method.

Here ShowTodaysInfo and GetLeisureHours lack the Async suffix.
