Note that what it creates is a slightly different IO computation that re-organizes the results, you'll still need to run that IO in the end.

Typically, it's passed all the way down to your closest use of IO (often main for beginners) where you'll be able to finally get rid of it by performing the effects and doing something with the results. The flavor of choice depends on the situation but I find the IO monad very readable.

main :: IO ()

main = do

    listOfA <- sequence ioListOfA

    -- Use listOfA from here
