Angular core has basic support for observables.

You'll see how shortly.

Recall that the `HeroService` chained the `toPromise` operator to the `Observable` result of `http.get()`.

That operator converted the `Observable` into a `Promise` and you passed that promise back to the caller.

Converting to a promise is often a good choice. You typically ask `http.get` to fetch a single chunk of data.

cancel it, and make a different request before the server has responded to the first request.
