Can anyone recommend a good guide to monads for people with a C/assembly background? I've always had trouble understanding functional programming topics until I could figure out how to implement them in C use a basic struct + function design. I still haven't found a good description of monads and I don't want to spend time learning Haskell so every time I read about monads, I try to understand them and give up after I find the guides uninformative.
