CLOSED Discord.py rewrite with async

Question

This code changes the discord bot's status every 10 seconds. Code worked before I pip updated discord.py, but now it gives an error: Someone told me, to create a main function and inside that function put, await ch_pr()?

then you need to sue asyncio.run to run the funtion

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "I:\Frecker\testbot.py", line 160, in <module>
    client.loop.create_task(ch_pr())
  File "C:\Users\Londo\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\discord\client.py", line 108, in __getattr__
    raise AttributeError(msg)
AttributeError: loop attribute cannot be accessed in non-async contexts. Consider using either an asynchronous main function and passing it to asyncio.run or using asynchronous initialisation hooks such as Client.setup_hook

Code:

@client.event
async def on_ipc_error(self,endpoint, error):
    print(endpoint, "raised", error)

async def ch_pr():
    await client.wait_until_ready()

    statuses = [
        discord.Game(name=f"on {len(client.guilds)} servers! | >help"),
        discord.Game(name="discord.py"),
        discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.streaming, name="ChezLondo on Youtube", url="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE8aHxOOXspTeC0Lm5vx2KA"),
        discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.streaming, name="ChezLondo_ on Twitch", url="https://www.twitch.tv/chezlondo_"),
        discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.listening, name="Freker on top.gg!"),
        discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.watching, name="over you fools")
    ]
    while not client.is_closed():
        status = random.choice(statuses)
        await client.change_presence(activity=status)

        await asyncio.sleep(10)

client.loop.create_task(ch_pr())

@tasks.loop(seconds = 10)
async def task_loop():
    await client.wait_until_ready()

    statuses = [
        discord.Game(name=f"on {len(client.guilds)} servers! | >help"),
        discord.Game(name="discord.py"),
        discord.Activity(type=discord.ActivityType.streaming, name="ChezLondo on Youtube", url="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE8aHxOOXspTeC0Lm5vx2KA"),

    Beep(700 , 500)
    Beep(1000 , 500)
    channel = client.get_channel(994315757175451830) 
    await channel.send("Hi, I'm back online!")
    task_loop.start()
