# Additional Status Codes

By default, **FastAPI** will return the responses using a `JSONResponse`, putting the content you return from your *path operation* inside of that `JSONResponse`.

It will use the default status code or the one you set in your *path operation*.

## Additional status codes

We create an async function `lifespan()` with `yield` like this:

{* ../../docs_src/events/tutorial003.py hl[16,19] *}

Here we are simulating the expensive *startup* operation of loading the model by putting the (fake) model function in the dictionary with machine learning models before the `yield`. This code will be executed **before** the application **starts taking requests**, during the *startup*.

    public EntryComparator(@Nullable Comparator<? super K> keyComparator) {
      this.keyComparator = keyComparator;
    }

    @Override
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") // no less safe than putting it in the map!
    public int compare(Entry<K, V> a, Entry<K, V> b) {
      return (keyComparator == null)
          ? ((Comparable) a.getKey()).compareTo(b.getKey())
          : keyComparator.compare(a.getKey(), b.getKey());

    public EntryComparator(@Nullable Comparator<? super K> keyComparator) {
      this.keyComparator = keyComparator;
    }

    @Override
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") // no less safe than putting it in the map!
    public int compare(Entry<K, V> a, Entry<K, V> b) {
      return (keyComparator == null)
          ? ((Comparable) a.getKey()).compareTo(b.getKey())
          : keyComparator.compare(a.getKey(), b.getKey());

## Type Hints with Metadata Annotations

Python also has a feature that allows putting **additional <abbr title="Data about the data, in this case, information about the type, e.g. a description.">metadata</abbr>** in these type hints using `Annotated`.
