"""
The Banker's algorithm is a resource allocation and deadlock avoidance algorithm
developed by Edsger Dijkstra that tests for safety by simulating the allocation of
predetermined maximum possible amounts of all resources, and then makes a "s-state"
check to test for possible deadlock conditions for all other pending activities,
before deciding whether allocation should be allowed to continue.
