Tap inside a monadic chain. //! @ingroup group-Monad //! //! Given a function `f`, `tap` returns a new function which performs //! `f` on its argument and then returns the argument lifted in the `M` //! `Monad`. Combined with the property that `chain(m, lift) == m`, //! this provides a way of executing an action inside a monadic chain //! without influencing its overall result. This is useful to e.g. insert //! debug statements or perform actions that are not tied to the chain but //! that need to be executed inside of it. //! //! @note //! Since C++ is not a pure language, it is possible to perform side //! effects inside the `f` function. Actually, side effects are the //! only reason why one might want to use `tap`. However, one should //! not rely on the side effects being done in any specific order. //! //! //! @tparam M //! The tag (a `Monad`) of the monads in the tapped monadic chain. //! //! @param f //! A function to be executed inside a monadic chain. It will be called //! as `f(x)`, where `x` is a value inside the previous monad in the //! chain. The result of `f` is always discarded. //! //! //!
