That same "Comonadic" paper describes how every zipper is a comonad. I bet if we found more examples of zippers, comonads would be in business. Much as I respect Huet 1997, more zipper tutorials wouldn't harm either. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Explaining-monads-tf4244948.html#a12117211 Sent from the Haskell - Haskell-Cafe mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
