class Monad m => MonadFail (m :: * -> *) where #
When a value is bound in do-notation, the pattern on the left
hand side of <- might not match. In this case, this class
provides a function to recover.
A Monad without a MonadFail instance may only be used in conjunction
with pattern that always match, such as newtypes, tuples, data types with
only a single data constructor, and irrefutable patterns (~pat).
Instances of MonadFail should satisfy the following law: fail s should
be a left zero for >>=,
fail s >>= f = fail s
If your Monad is also MonadPlus, a popular definition is
fail _ = mzero
