await Task D

Answer 2

You can assign the tasks to do the necessary work but not await as they start doing that.

Create a variable and assign it to the task that comes back:

var taskA = A();
var taskB = B();
var taskC = C();

At this point, they all started in the background and only afterwards we wait them to finish:

await taskA;
await taskB;
await taskC;

And after the completion of A, B, C, run and wait for it to complete D :

await D();

How about using Thread?

List<Thread> tmpThread = new List<Thread>();
tmpThread.Add(new Thread(new ThreadStart(A));
tmpThread.Add(new Thread(new ThreadStart(B));
tmpThread.Add(new Thread(new ThreadStart(C));
tmpThread.Add(new Thread(new ThreadStart(D));

tmpThread[0].Start();
tmpThread[1].Start();
tmpThread[2].Start();
tmpThread[3].Start();
