The others in this thread have already explained how these functions
work, so I'll just give an example how they are used.
Consider the followi
The expression
sequence [a,b,c,...]
is roughly equivalent to
do
r_a <- a
r_b <- b
r_c <- c
...
return [r_a,r_b,r_c,...]
The expression
sequence_ [a,b,c,...]
is roughly equivalent to
do
a
b
c
...
Hi,
Can somebody please explain exactly how the monad functions "sequence" and
"sequence_" are meant to work?
I have almost every Haskell textbook, but there's surprisingly little
information in them about the two functions.
From what I can gather, "sequence" and "sequence_" behave differently
