What does "side effect" mean, to you? Definition?
When discussing monads, at least, a side effect is an effect that is triggered by merely evaluating an expression. A monad is an interface that decouples effects from evaluation.
Because some people say "State has no side effect", and some other people
say "State has side effects". The two groups use different definitions.
