Hello everyone,

I am quite new to monadic code so I would like to ask for improvement 
suggestions on the last line of the code below.
I know I could do something like "do strs <- mapM ...; intercalate ..." 
etc, but I would like to avoid the use of "<-".

Thank you,
José

data XmlState = XmlState Int
type XmlM a = State XmlState a

loop :: Document -> XmlM String

someFn :: [Document] -> XmlM String
someFn docs =
   return concat `ap` (sequence $ intersperse (return "\n") (map loop 
docs))    <--- improve this line
