and execute sub-computations in a modified environment.
Using <code><a href="Control-Monad-Reader.html#t:Reader">Reader</a></code> monad for such computations is often clearer and easier
than using the <code><a href="Control-Monad-State.html#v:State">State</a></code> monad.</p><p>Inspired by the paper
