I would like to give a word of encouragement to anyone who, like me, thought this insight into Monads was all greek. Understanding any of the material in this tutorial is not a prerequisite to writing practical computer programs in Haskell.
You don't have to completely understand Monads in order to use them.
Just as you learn adding two numbers together in pre-school and learn about axioms of associativity and commutativity later, you should start by learning IO first and think about the more general ideas later.
Nevertheless, this was quite an interesting article. Maybe I'll try to put some thought into it and see if I can learn something that would help me level up my Haskell skills.
