Hi,
I would like to know what options I have in Haskell to do something
similar to this C++ code:
double a = 1000;
while (a>1) a/=2;
I'm able to do that with lists, but I would like to know how to do
that with monads and variables with state.
You'll get good code using a normal recusive loop:
main = print (loop 1000)
where
loop a | a <= 1 = a
| otherwise = loop (a/2)
All such control structures may be implemented using recursion.

I understand those examples, but I really would like to know how to
do that with monads. I would like to ask the same question, but now with
this code:
double a = 1000;
double b = 0;
while (a != b) {
a /= 2;
cout << a; // Prints a
cin << b; // User gives a number, stored in b
};
Best,
Maurício
