In a category with internal homs , given an object , the continuation monad is the endofunctor .
In computer science this monad (in computer science) is used to model continuation-passing style of programming, and therefore this is called the continuation monad. The idea here is that a morphism in the Kleisli category of the continuation monad, hence a morphism in the original category of the form is much like a map from to only that instead of “returning” its output directly it instead feeds it into a given function which hence continues the computation.
As a monad in computer science:
The continuation monad is discussed in the generality of linear type theory as the linear double negation monad in
