Nutrient standards such as the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs) may be used to assess diets of both individuals and of population groups. The goal is to estimate the probability of dietary adequacy (or inadequacy) for an individual and the prevalence of dietary adequacy for a group. The DRI that is needed to estimate the probability of dietary adequacy is the estimated average requirement for a...

Moggi proposed a monadic account of computational effects. He also presented the computational λ-calculus, λc, a core call-by-value functional programming language for effects; the effects are obtained by adding appropriate operations. The question arises as to whether one can give a corresponding treatment of operational semantics. We do this in the case of algebraic effects where the operatio...
