Nah, they’re pretty much the same meaning.
- Dylan16807 5y agoA monad, derived from monoid, means multiple very specific things completely unrelated to the other definition of "single parameter". And the etymology is basically a coincidence because "mono" got used in different places, isn't it?
- a1369209993 5y ago> []completely unrelated[] to the other definition of "single parameter". Actually, all monads are monadic functions/operators on their (usually type) parameter. Eg, 'list' is a monadic operator from element types to types of lists of those elements. It's completely different (AFAICT), and mostly unrelated, but it's not completely unrelated.
