@kaleidic Formin an opinion that jQuery is not monads. jQuery funcs are methods on the type jQuery which return a jQuery. They don't wrap. in reply to kaleidic #
@kaleidic Fluent interfaces return the same type that the method was invoked upon. Monads often allow type transformations in the chain in reply to kaleidic #

@Missing_Faktor Monad is a type (or type constructor) which wraps a type. I don't see how thats true for jQuery. method on a type @kaleidic in reply to Missing_Faktor #

@Missing_Faktor By that logic every method on a class which returned this/self would be a monad – something I ain't buying yet @kaleidic in reply to Missing_Faktor #
@Missing_Faktor Monad has A binding operation of polymorphic type (M t)→(t→M u)→(M u), No such thing in jQuery @kaleidic in reply to Missing_Faktor #
