Ping-pong scheme

Ping-pong scheme

A Ping-Pong scheme is a simple algorithm for distributing data packets acrosstwo paths.

If you had two paths A and B, then the algorithmwould randomly start with 1 of the paths and then switch back and forth between the two.

If you were to get the next path from a function call, it would look likethis in Python:

get_next_path(): while True: yield 'A' yield 'B'
