Use `nextTick()` when you want to make sure that in the next event loop iteration that code is already executed.

#### An Example of the order of events:

```js
console.log('Hello => number 1');

setImmediate(() => {
console.log('Running before the timeout => number 3');
});

setTimeout(() => {
console.log('The timeout running last => number 4');
}, 0);

process.nextTick(() => {
console.log('Running at next tick => number 2');
});
```

#### Example output:

```bash
Hello => number 1
Running at next tick => number 2
Running before the timeout => number 3
The timeout running last => number 4
```

The exact output may differ from run to run.
