# Exponential Backoff [![GoDoc][godoc image]][godoc] [![Coverage Status][coveralls image]][coveralls]
This is a Go port of the exponential backoff algorithm from [Google's HTTP Client Library for Java][google-http-java-client].
[Exponential backoff][exponential backoff wiki]
is an algorithm that uses feedback to multiplicatively decrease the rate of some process,
in order to gradually find an acceptable rate.
The retries exponentially increase and stop increasing when a certain threshold is met.
## Usage
Import path is `github.com/cenkalti/backoff/v4`. Please note the version part at the end.

## Contributing

* Please don't send a PR without opening an issue and discussing it first.
* If proposed change is not a common use case, I will probably not accept it.
