They're both monads; it's just that rx provides you the additional convenience of handling existing exceptions. | |

| May 11, 2016 at 17:34 | comment | added | Noel Yap | @RobertHarvey, AFAIK, exceptions are thrown by the called function when using 'rx' Try. I've amended the question to add that qualification. | |

| May 11, 2016 at 16:25 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | @Noel: According to github.com/aol/cyclops/wiki/…, it doesn't throw exceptions; it wraps error handling in a monad. So neither of your definitions throws exceptions. | |
| May 11, 2016 at 16:24 | comment | added | Vincent Savard | @RobertHarvey I think it is as well, I just dislike the title. | |
| May 11, 2016 at 16:23 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | @VincentSavard: This question seems sufficiently constrained in scope to be answerable Q&A style. | |
| May 11, 2016 at 16:23 | comment | added | Robert Harvey | I would think that the pros and cons are the same as those of throwing exceptions vs. not throwing exceptions. | |
