Re: [Haskell-cafe] Why monad tutorials don't work

On 14/08/07, Dan Weston wrote: [snips another metaphor for monadic programming] No offence to Dan, whose post I enjoyed. The concept of wrapping is as close a metaphor as we seem to get without disagreements. But this has brought me to a realisation, after Paul Erdos: The Haskell community is a machine for converting coffee to monad tutorials. In the spirit of the venture, I will now suggest that someone points out that they don't like coffee, and that I haven't allowed for arrow tutorials ;-) Cheers, D.
