Continuation is not displaying Result

Question

The Following code does not display the resutl:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    Task<DayOfWeek> taskA = Task.Run(() => DateTime.Today.DayOfWeek);
    Task continuation = taskA.ContinueWith(antecedent => Console.WriteLine("\n\nToday is {0}.", antecedent.Result));
}

This can be solved by:

try
{
      taskA.Wait();
      continuation.Wait();
}
catch (AggregateException ae)
{
  foreach (var ex in ae.InnerExceptions)
  Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}

Add Console.ReadKey() at the and of Main because you program exits before task prints anything.
