Handling Errors with try-catch-finally

What advanced error handling pattern is implemented?

async function retryWithBackoff(operation, maxAttempts = 3) {
  for (let attempt = 1; attempt <= maxAttempts; attempt++) {
    try {
      return await operation();
    } catch (error) {
      if (attempt === maxAttempts) throw error;
      await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, Math.pow(2, attempt) * 1000));
    }
  }
}

Simple retry
Exponential backoff
This implements exponential backoff: 1) Increases delay between retries exponentially, 2) Prevents overwhelming systems, 3) Common in network operations, 4) Improves recovery chances, 5) Handles transient failures gracefully, 6) Better than simple retry, 7) Standard practice in distributed systems, 8) Enhances system resilience.
Linear retry
Random retry
