Abstract: This tutorial examines well-known algorithms for distributed consensus problems, from classical consensus to blockchain consensus. We discuss exact algorithms that are high-level as in pseudocode and directly executable as programs at the same time, focusing on how to quickly program, configure, run, and check these algorithms as well as distributed algorithms and systems in general.
