Monad

The Monad type-class is a structure that represents computations defined as sequences of steps: : a type with a monad structure defines what it means to chain operations together, or nest functions of that type.

See: Monads for functional programming

To implement Monad:

inherit from Monad.Type in derived type-classes
inherit from Monad.Instance when implementing instances

The purpose of this type-class is to support the data-types in the Monix library and it is considered a shim for a lawful type-class to be supplied by libraries such as Cats or Scalaz or equivalent.

CREDITS: The type-class encoding has been inspired by the Scato project by Aloïs Cochard and Scalaz 8 and the type has been extracted from Cats.
