Doh, yes, of course. I had a feeling I was missing something obvious :)

Thanks :)

Isn't that "sequence" in State monad?

Hi,

Does this function remind anybody of anything? It seems like I'm missing an obvious abstraction:

composeWriter :: [a -> (a, b)] -> a -> (a, [b])
composeWriter [] a
= (a, [])
composeWriter (f:fs) a
= let (a', b) = f a
         (final_a, bs) = composeWriter fs a'
   in (final_a, b:bs)

It's almost but not quite composition for functions in the Writer monad; the difference is that every function has exactly one b result, rather than a list of them.
