Control.Monad.Trans.Writer.Strict
Description
The strict WriterT monad transformer, which adds collection of
 outputs (such as a count or string output) to a given monad.
This monad transformer provides only limited access to the output during the computation. For more general access, use Control.Monad.Trans.State instead.
This version builds its output strictly; for a lazy version with the same interface, see Control.Monad.Trans.Writer.Lazy. Although the output is built strictly, it is not possible to achieve constant space behaviour with this transformer: for that, use Control.Monad.Trans.Writer.CPS instead.

The Writer monad
writer :: Monad m => (a, w) -> WriterT w m a Source #
Construct a writer computation from a (result, output) pair.
 (The inverse of runWriter.)
runWriter :: Writer w a -> (a, w) Source #
Unwrap a writer computation as a (result, output) pair.
 (The inverse of writer.)
execWriter :: Writer w a -> w Source #
Extract the output from a writer computation.
execWriterm =snd(runWriterm)
The WriterT monad transformer
newtype WriterT w m a Source #
A writer monad parameterized by:
w- the output to accumulate.m- The inner monad.
The return function produces the output mempty, while >>=
 combines the outputs of the subcomputations using mappend.

Instances
execWriterT :: Monad m => WriterT w m a -> m w Source #
Extract the output from a writer computation.
execWriterTm =liftMsnd(runWriterTm)
mapWriterT :: (m (a, w) -> n (b, w')) -> WriterT w m a -> WriterT w' n b Source #
Map both the return value and output of a computation using the given function.
runWriterT(mapWriterTf m) = f (runWriterTm)
Writer operations
listen :: Monad m => WriterT w m a -> WriterT w m (a, w) Source #
 is an action that executes the action listen mm and adds its
 output to the value of the computation.
runWriterT(listenm) =liftM(\ (a, w) -> ((a, w), w)) (runWriterTm)
listens :: Monad m => (w -> b) -> WriterT w m a -> WriterT w m (a, b) Source #
 is an action that executes the action listens f mm and adds
 the result of applying f to the output to the value of the computation.
listensf m =liftM(id *** f) (listenm)runWriterT(listensf m) =liftM(\ (a, w) -> ((a, f w), w)) (runWriterTm)
pass :: Monad m => WriterT w m (a, w -> w) -> WriterT w m a Source #
 is an action that executes the action pass mm, which returns
 a value and a function, and returns the value, applying the function
 to the output.
runWriterT(passm) =liftM(\ ((a, f), w) -> (a, f w)) (runWriterTm)
censor :: Monad m => (w -> w) -> WriterT w m a -> WriterT w m a Source #
 is an action that executes the action censor f mm and
 applies the function f to its output, leaving the return value
 unchanged.
censorf m =pass(liftM(\ x -> (x,f)) m)runWriterT(censorf m) =liftM(\ (a, w) -> (a, f w)) (runWriterTm)
