18: Monads LambdaCast

    • Technology

Monads, the promised land of functional programming. Or at least with all the hype they'd better be! Come join the cast as we demystify this overhyped structure that has become an indispensable part of many functional programmer's toolkits.

Episode 18 patrons:
Pluton
Tim Buckley
Huge shout out to Marcus Nielsen

Show Notes:
bind :: m a -> (a -> m b) -> m b

Example of do syntax vs using bind aka >>=:
main = do
foo >= (\foo -> doOtherMonadyThing foo
>>= (\foo2 -> pure (whatever foo foo2))
)

Extracting a value from a Maybe

extract :: Just Int -> Int
extract foo = case foo of
Just num -> num
Nothing -> 0
