Do you know C#? LINQ? IEnumerable? IEnumerable is a monad. That's how LINQ works.

You've been using monads all along.

Optional is my favorite example to give, at this point most people have internalized how to use its map function and how it works

That’s a good one.

A rule of thumb is that if it has map and flatMap (or equivalent), then chances are that it’s a monad.
