[Docs] Question about factor

vitkarpov opened this issue · 0 comments

Hey, hope you're doing well!

I have a question about this chapter in the docs. You declare factor as an exponential factor but in the formula below:

Math.min(random * minTimeout * Math.pow(factor, attempt), maxTimeout)

it's used in terms of the power's base, not the factor itself, isn't it? From my perspective, it's not the same.

Can you elaborate this subtle moment, please?
