[Haskell-cafe] Suggestions For An Intro To Monads Talk.

[Ozgur Akgun]

Today I read this fantastic blog post:
You Could Have Invented Monads! (And Maybe You Already Have.)
http://blog.sigfpe.com/2006/08/you-could-have-invented-monads-and.html

You most probably have seen the post by now, but I just wanted to remind it,
just in case.

Best,
