```javascript
const baz = () => console.log('baz');
const foo = () => console.log('foo');
const zoo = () => console.log('zoo');

const start = () => {
  console.log('start');
  setImmediate(baz);
  new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
    resolve('bar');
  }).then(resolve => {
    console.log(resolve);
    process.nextTick(zoo);
  });
  process.nextTick(foo);
};

start();

// start foo bar zoo baz
```

but in *.mjs is different:

```mjs
// start bar foo zoo baz
```

because ES Module is asyncchronous, second output is 'bar', not 'foo'

Event loop's order of operations:
