Monads are one the most talked about "features" of the Haskell language. The web abounds with monad tutorials and monad examples, yet they maintain a reputation for giving newcomers a hard time. What are monads, and what are they good for? Do you even have to code in Haskell to use them? We'll approach monads from a problem-oriented perspective, with discussions of some other important type classes along the way.
