I found this explanation of monads more lucid than most, and it is true that the examples and analogies are usually more confusing than helpful.
But what I still don't understand is how monads force sequencing more so than regular function calls and expression evaluation. The very first example is about sequencing but there doesn't seem to be much explanation of how monads are usueful for inducing sequencing in a lazy pure functional context.
