Backtracking with cut via a distributive law and left-zero monoids

We employ the framework of algebraic effects to augment the list monad with the pruning cut operator known from Prolog. We give two descriptions of the resulting monad: as the monad of free left-zero monoids, and as a composition via a distributive law of the list monad and the ‘unary idempotent ope...
