> result of one IO computation But for many people, they will be used to IO returning nothing, or error values they can ignore. So the case has to be made as to why you need a monad there at all. (I've just had the slightly disturbing realisation that C++ streams are also monads .. the documentation never uses this term.) |

It's part of Bartosz Milewski's extensive discussion of C++[2], but I'm unsure how that mass can be accessibly approached... maybe by starting around 2011. I very fuzzily recall liking his "Re-discovering Monads in C+" (2014)[3], but I didn't quickly find video. Apparently he gave a "Monads for C++" talk in 2017[4].
