Promises & then/catch

What Promise pattern is implemented here?

function retry(operation, retries) {
  return operation().catch(error =>
    retries > 0
      ? retry(operation, retries - 1)
      : Promise.reject(error)
  );
}

Timeout
Retry with recursion
This implements a recursive retry pattern for Promises: 1) Attempts the operation multiple times before final failure, 2) Uses recursion to implement retry logic, 3) Only retries on failure (catch block), 4) Preserves the original error if all retries fail, 5) Common pattern for handling transient failures in network operations, 6) Can be enhanced with exponential backoff or delay between retries.
