Hi, I'm running through these Haskell exercises: http://dibblego.wordpress.com/2008/09/18/20-intermediate-haskell-exercises/ and I'm stuck at number 9: class Misty m where banana :: (a -> m b) -> m a -> m b unicorn :: a -> m a -- Exercise 9 -- Relative Difficulty: 6 instance Misty ((->) t) where banana = ??? unicorn x = (\t -> x) I can picture it when m is "[]" or "Maybe", but I can't wrap my head around the banane implementation for "((->) t)". I can see that this somewhat looks like a Monad, with unicorn = return and banana = (flip >>=) or something. Perhaps some kind of reader Monad? Can anyone offer any insight?
