*Main> :t rollDie ~>> (rollDie ~>> rollDie)
rollDie ~>> (rollDie ~>> rollDie) :: Seed -> (Int, Seed)
This is a function. How exactly do you want ghci to show it? When you
figure that out, feel free to make an instance of Show for it.
Meanwhile, you can just apply the function to a Seed value and see what
happens:
*Main> rollDie ~>> rollDie ~>> rollDie $ 6

Possible fix:
add an instance declaration for (Show (Seed -> (Int, Seed)))
In a stmt of a 'do' expression: print it

You know, to avoid this nonsense you could just name the operator
something else, like >>~, or ~>>, or $...@**!. Operators are just names.

=====
I was passing seed0 to rollDie and getting back (r1,seed1)
passing seed1 to rollDie and getting back (r2,seed2)
passing seed2 to rollDie and getting back (r3,seed3)
Just based on the problem text, I would guess that
passing rollDie and seed0 to (>>) I would get back
(r3,seed3),
losing the intermediate random numbers r1 and r2 along the way, at
least that's what I understood it to say.
So, I know that next I'm probably going to have to do something to
remedy that, but I haven't gotten to that next step yet. What is
unsugar?
Thanks in advance for your patience.

Be aware that the do unsugars to (Prelude.>>), not your
(>>), even if you hide (Prelude.>>):
import Prelude hiding ((>>))
m >> f = error "Call me!"
main = putStrLn . show $ do [3,4]
[5]
The desugaring of the do { [3,4]; [5] } is (Prelude.>>)
[3,4] [5] = [5,5], whereas you might have hoped for [3,4] >>
[5] = error "Call me!"

To continue following the example, I need to know how to
override the Prelude (>>) with the (>>) definition in my
file rand.hs.
