In JavaScript, promises can’t be resolved and rejected at the same time.

The execution will never reach the call to setTimeout and thus reject(2), inside of it.

Thus only the number 1 will be printed on the screen.

ANSWER: A single message will be logged to the console. After the promise is resolved with 1 the execution stops and the setTimeout won’t be called.
