When a Subscriber initially calls subscription.request(_:), it specifies the maximum number of values it is willing to receive.

func receive(_ input: Self.Input) -> Subscribers.Demand  //ON SLIDE
example(of: "Dynamically adjusting Demand") {
  final class IntSubscriber: Subscriber {
    typealias Input = Int
    typealias Failure = Never
    func receive(subscription: Subscription) {
      subscription.request(.max(2))
    }
    func receive(_ input: Int) -> Subscribers.Demand {
      print("Received value", input)
      
      switch input {
      case 1:
        return .max(2) // 1
      case 3:
        return .max(1) // 2
      default:
        return .none // 3
      }
    }
    func receive(completion: Subscribers.Completion<Never>) {
      print("Received completion", completion)
    }
  }
  let subscriber = IntSubscriber()
  
  let subject = PassthroughSubject<Int, Never>()
  
  subject.subscribe(subscriber)
  subject.send(1)
  subject.send(2)
  subject.send(3)
  subject.send(4)
  subject.send(5)
  subject.send(6)
}
