Interesting. It is, as I thought, very short with monads -- though that version doesn't really use randomness, but instead enumerates all the possibilities. You'd need slightly different monads to thread a random bit-stream through instead of enumerating all the alternatives. The difference is like that between classical randomness and quantum many worlds, with the probability distribution monads doing the many worlds version. :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
