Style #9
==============================
Constraints:
- Existence of an abstraction to which values can be
converted.
- This abstraction provides operations to (1) wrap
around values, so that they become the abstraction; (2) bind
itself to functions, so to establish sequences of functions;
and (3) unwrap the value, so to examine the final result.
- Larger problem is solved as a pipeline of functions bound
together, with unwrapping happening at the end.
- Particularly for The One style, the bind operation simply
calls the given function, giving it the value that it holds, and holds
on to the returned value.
Possible names:
- The One
- Monadic Identity
- The wrapper of all things
- Imperative functional style
