Hello!

I just finished a weekend project, [a poker equity evaluator](https://github.com/olaberglund/purely-poker), to practice parallelism (turns out it was ridiculously easy, as can be seen on line 99).

What other features would be neat to implement, if I want to find patterns that match for practicing monad transformers? Or any other essential Haskell patterns? I feel like I know the basics of the syntax and computation, but not abstractions.

Another option is to test out Agda, but although it seems fun it might be more useful to get better at Haskell first.
