Definition of leaky bucket counter

SOLVED: Write a C++ program to simulate the behavior of the leaky bucket. Leaky Bucket Algorithm Figure 1 shows the leaky bucket algorithm. Assume that the arriving packets have a variable size and the queue has a finite buffer. At each clock tick, the program randomly selects the number of arriving packets and the size of each packet, and using the leaky bucket algorithm, the program tries to send the packets out of the queue. Remove packets from the leaky bucket at a constant rate. Algorit
