Monads! (right?)
Well, I suppose so. Generally speaking. But, you might want to consider using the standard random generation routines from the (IO) top level of your program, and just split the random generator for each function that uses it. IOW, passing each function its own random generator, instead of worrying about returning the "rest" of a global random sequence. (I don't have any good example code, I'm afraid, but at leat have a look at the chapter on Random in the library report on http://haskell.org) -kzm -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
