What is the meaning of the runSomething convention in the Haskell community?

Question

I saw in some documents and textbooks:

• runReader
• runState
• runState

What is the abstract concept embracing this template? What does something mean in Haskell?

The side question is, is there a tag for things that you always wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask?

Answer 1

In Haskell, convention runSomethingmeans "execute the effects described inside this argument and return the resulting value."
