Control.Comonad.Trans.Env

The environment comonad holds a value along with some retrievable context.

This module specifies the environment comonad transformer (aka coreader), which is left adjoint to the reader comonad.

The following sets up an experiment that retains its initial value in the background:

>>> let initial = env 0 0

Extract simply retrieves the value:

>>> extract initial0

Play around with the value, in our case producing a negative value:

>>> let experiment = fmap (+ 10) initial>>> extract experiment10

Oh noes, something went wrong, 10 isn't very negative! Better restore the initial value using the default:

>>> let initialRestored = experiment =>> ask>>> extract initialRestored0
