I have some experience with the state monad but your article has sparked
my interest for the continuation monad that you explained. I would have
liked at least one example that uses some data, not just functions.
Since you seem to have quite some experience with monads, is performance
a problem? I would expect that the strict evaluation of OCaml leads to
an enormous numbers of closures in a monadic programming style,
something that might not happen in Haskell. For the same reason the
combinator style that is so poular in Haskell seems not very popular in
OCaml. The standard library not even defines a function composition
operator.
