Documentation for implementing the interfaces, particularly the pure method #1

Closed AlexKnauth closed 7 years ago

AlexKnauth commented 7 years ago

In the documentation I can't find any examples of how I should implement interfaces like gen:monad and gen:applicative.

In particular the pure method in gen:applicative doesn't seem to be documented properly, since the generic-interface version (the one I have to implement) takes two arguments, but the provided and documented version (delayed-pure in the internals) takes one argument.

gen:applicative: generic method definition has an incorrect arity; expected a procedure that accepts 2 arguments
  pure: #<procedure:my-type-pure>

Good catch. This library definitely needs a bit more love in the documentation department, so I’ll take a look and write some more docs.

Thanks!
