Continuation Monad with Call/CC
This is an implementation of the Continuation monad using a type, taking an exception handler, and allowing for Call/CC. This specific implementation is mostly Matt Podwysocki's. I have a similar implementation using a purely functional, exception-handler-less version in FSharp.Monad. Until now, I haven't been able to resolve the callCC operator.
