That’s a statement, not a question.
“It is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.”
That’s two consecutive function calls, a monad.
That’s a queue of actions operated by a timer click.
That’s a monad, too.
@mudasobwa @Zurga I’ve never really read up on monads in detail, but I’m curious about them. My current very surface-level understanding is that they are effectively conditional types with delayed evaluation, so they can represent side-effects in an immutable environment. My mental model of them is similar to a future or coroutine in an imperative language. Is that an accurate assessment?
How you write things down is not only a matter of syntax. It conveys semantic meaning as well.
