The Monad.Reader
The Monad.Reader is a electronic magazine about all things Haskell. It is less formal than journal, but somehow more enduring than a wiki-page. There have been a wide variety of articles: exciting code fragments, intriguing puzzles, book reviews, tutorials, and even half-baked research ideas.
Submission Details
NEW this issue: for my reviewing sanity, I am setting a soft page limit
of fifteen pages. If you would like to write something longer, get
in touch, but remember: brevity is the soul of wit.
In any case, contact me if you intend to submit something — the sooner you let me know what you’re up to, the better.
Please submit articles for the next issue to me by e-mail (ezyang@mit.edu).
Articles should be written according to the guidelines available from
https://themonadreader.wordpress.com/contributing/
Please submit your article in PDF, together with any source files you used. The sources will be released together with the magazine under a BSD license.
If you would like to submit an article, but have trouble with LaTeX please let me know and we’ll work something out.
Issue 23
I am pleased to announce that Issue 23 of the Monad Reader is now available.
Issue 23 consists of the following five articles:

- Supercompilation: Ideas and Methods (+appendix) by Ilya Klyuchnikov and Dimitur Krustev
- A Haskell sound specification DSL: Ludic support and deep immersion in Nordic technology-supported LARP by Henrik Bäärnhielm, Daniel Sundström and Mikael Vejdemo-Johansson
- MFlow, a continuation-based web framework without continuations by Alberto Gomez Corona
- Practical Type System Benefits by Neil Brown
This time around, I have individual article files for each (and the supercompilation article has an extra appendix not included in the full issue PDF).

Issue 22
I am pleased to announce that Issue 22 of The Monad Reader is now available.
Issue 22 consists of the following three articles:
- Generalized Algebraic Data Types in Haskell by Anton Dergunov
- Error Reporting Parsers: a Monad Transformer Approach by Matt Fenwick and Jay Vyas
- Two Monoids for Approximating NP-Complete Problems by Mike Izbicki

Errata. Unfortunately there were several mistakes in the “Generalized Algebraic Data Types in Haskell” tutorial article which were recently fixed (many thanks to Shachaf Ben-Kiki and vituscze for pointing them out):
1. On page 9 of the article “error” function was used in “evaluate”
function, but in this context “fail” is cleaner.
2. On page 22 there was a typo: shortest paths are those “containing only *red* nodes”.
3. On page 24 we presented two alternative ways to define “Tree” data type: via GADTs and existential types. The latter definition contained an error. Correct definition is:
data Tree a = forall bh. Root (Node a bh)
