A few things have changed since the functional basics page was written - go back through and update terminology, method names, and module names.

sequence :: Monad m => [m a] -> m [a]
Convert a list of monad into a monad of list

This is low hanging fruit for optimization. When calling Module::using() in multiple places and requesting the same function, memoize and store the result of the internal reflection call so that a single reflection is never duplicated.

product :: [Num] -> Num
Returns the product of the given list

negate :: Num -> Num
Returns the given number * -1

dropWhile :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a]
Returns the list sans the first elements that pass the given test

Add tests

all :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Bool
Returns true if every element of [a] passes the given test.

drop :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
Returns the given list sans the first n elements

not :: Bool -> Bool
Logical not

indexOf :: a -> [a] -> Maybe Int
Finds the index of the given element

min :: Num -> Num -> Num
Returns the minimum of its two arguments

flatten :: [a] -> [b]
Flattens nested arrays

max :: Num -> Num -> Num
Returns the maximum of its two arguments

append :: a -> [a] -> [a]
Append a to [a]

trim :: String -> String
Returns a string with leading and trailing whitespace removed

findIndex :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Maybe Int
Attempts to find an element's index by using a given test

toUpper :: String -> String
Returns a string in uppercase

dropLastWhile :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a]
Returns the list sans the last elements that pass the given test

takeWhile :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> [a]
Take items from a list while a given test passes

and :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool
Logical and

adjust :: (a -> a) -> Int -> [a] -> [a]
Applies a function to the value at a given index.

Right now it only works with Applicative Functors interface-ing classes.
It should be overridden similar to Control\Functor::fmap to work with arrays, since [] is technically applicative.

call :: String -> Object -> a
Call the method String on the given Object and return its result

foldl :: (b -> a -> b) -> b -> [a] -> b
Reduce left

reverse :: [a] -> [a]
Reverse a list

take :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
Take n items from a list

find :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Maybe a
Attempts to find an element by using a given test

takeLast :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
Take n items from a list starting at the back

unique :: [a] -> [a]
Return an array with duplicates removed

The module lacks documentation. Things that should be covered in the docs:

• How Module works
• How to create your own module

mod :: Int -> Int -> Int
Modulus operator, divisor is first argument

repeat :: a -> Int -> [a]
Repeat the given item n times

any :: (a -> Bool) -> [a] -> Bool
Returns true if any element of [a] passes the given test

or :: Bool -> Bool -> Bool
Logical or

range :: Int -> Int -> [Int]
Returns all integers between the given arguments, inclusive

zip :: [a] -> [b] -> [[a, b]]
Zip two lists together into a 2-d array pairwise

foldr :: (a -> b -> b) -> b -> t a -> b
Reduce right

sum :: [Num] -> Num
Returns the sum of the given list

contains :: a -> [a] -> Bool
Returns true if [a] contains a

dropLast :: Int -> [a] -> [a]
Returns the given list sans the last n elements

[] is a monad, so bind and kleisli compose should both work with it similar to how Control\Functor::fmap works with arrays.
