startCoroutine

fun <T> suspend () -> T.startCoroutine(completion: Continuation<T>)

Starts a coroutine without a receiver and with result type T. This function creates and starts a new, fresh instance of suspendable computation every time it is invoked. The completion continuation is invoked when the coroutine completes with a result or an exception.
