Round Robin Algorithm

The Round Robin algorithm is a way for computers to fairly share their processing time among multiple tasks or programs. Imagine a set of people taking turns speaking in a meeting, each getting a fixed amount of time before passing the turn to the next person. Similarly, each program gets a small slice of CPU time in a fixed, cyclic order. This approach ensures that no task gets ignored and all make progress, providing a balanced and efficient way to manage multiple processes simultaneously.
