Lookup Tables: A Cleaner Approach to Exponential Backoff

Traditional exponential backoff algorithms often use loops to calculate delay times, leading to verbose and error-prone code. This article proposes a more elegant solution: using a lookup table to predefine delay times. This approach results in cleaner, more readable code. Modifying the backoff strategy becomes safer and easier, avoiding potential errors and complexity associated with loop-based calculations. This significantly improves code maintainability.
