How to delay 'hot' tasks so they can processed in a set order

Question

Say I have a set of tasks:

        var task1 = DoThisAsync(...);
        var task2 = DoThatAsync(...);
        var task3 = DoOtherAsync(...);
        var tas

Calling a method runs code. If you want an object that will call this method later, then use a delegate.

In this case, you could use Func, which is an asynchronous delegate. A list of these should suffice:

// Build the list of operations in order.
var operations = new List>();
operations.Add(() => DoThisAsync(...));
operations.Add(() => DoThatAsync(...));
operations.Add(() => DoOtherAsync(...));

// Execute them all one at a time.
foreach (var operation in operations)
  await operation();
