The Bully algorithm is a distributed algorithm used for electing a coordinator (or leader) among nodes in a distributed system. It is designed to handle situations where multiple nodes may operate concurrently and need to elect a single coordinator to manage tasks or resources. This algorithm is primarily applicable in systems that do not have a central controller and where nodes can fail or leave the network. \#\#\# Overview of the Bully Algorithm 1.
