censor :: MonadWriter m => (WriterType m -> WriterType m) -> m a -> m a

The Writer monad

type Writer w = WriterT w Identity

A writer monad parameterized by the type w of output to accumulate.

The return function produces the output mempty, while >>= combines the outputs of the subcomputations using mappend.

runWriter :: Writer w a -> (a, w)

Unwrap a writer computation as a (result, output) pair. (The inverse of writer.)

execWriter :: Writer w a -> w

Extract the output from a writer computation.

• execWriter m = snd (runWriter m)

mapWriter :: ((a, w) -> (b, w')) -> Writer w a -> Writer w' b

Map both the return value and output of a computation using the given function.

• runWriter (mapWriter f m) = f (runWriter m)

The WriterT monad transformer

newtype WriterT w m a

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.
