In some of the online resources on asynchronous behavior of JavaScript, concepts like browser architecture, call stack, event loop and event queue are also metionedmentioned. While describing the workings of browser event loop, some use the word event queue while others callback queue. I am confused by those terms and would like to know if they refer to the same queue data structure which is used in browsers or are they different and are used it to handle different scenarios?
