+// Compose is an alias for Local that emphasizes the composition aspect of consumer transformation.
+// It composes a preprocessing function with a consumer, creating a new consumer that applies

+//
+// This function is semantically identical to Local but uses terminology that may be more familiar
+// to developers coming from functional programming backgrounds where "compose" is a common operation.
+//
+// See: https://github.com/fantasyland/fantasy-land?tab=readme-ov-file#profunctor
+//
+// The name "Compose" highlights that we're composing two operations:
+//  1. The transformation function f: R2 -> R1
+//  2. The consumer c: R1 -> ()
+//
+// Result: A composed consumer: R2 -> ()
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - R1: The input type of the original Consumer (what it expects)
+//   - R2: The input type of the new Consumer (what you have)
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - f: A function that converts R2 to R1 (preprocessing function)
+//
+// Returns:
+//   - An Operator that transforms Consumer[R1] into Consumer[R2]

+// Example - Basic composition:

+//
+// See: https://github.com/fantasyland/fantasy-land?tab=readme-ov-file#contravariant
+//
+// In category theory, a contravariant functor reverses the direction of morphisms.
+// While a covariant functor maps f: A -> B to map(f): F[A] -> F[B],
+// a contravariant functor maps f: A -> B to contramap(f): F[B] -> F[A].
+//
+// For Consumers:
+//   - Consumer[A] is contravariant in A
+//   - Given f: R2 -> R1, contramap(f) transforms Consumer[R1] to Consumer[R2]
+//   - The direction is reversed: we go from Consumer[R1] to Consumer[R2]
+//
+// This is semantically identical to Local and Compose, but uses the standard
+// categorical terminology that emphasizes the contravariant nature of the transformation.
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - R1: The input type of the original Consumer (what it expects)
+//   - R2: The input type of the new Consumer (what you have)
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - f: A function that converts R2 to R1 (preprocessing function)

+//
+//	// Function from Dog to Animal (B -> A)
+//	dogToAnimal := func(d Dog) Animal {

+//
+//	consumeDog(Dog{
+//	    Animal: Animal{Name: "Buddy"},
+//	    Breed:  "Golden Retriever",
+//	}) // Logs: "Animal: Buddy"
+//
+// Example - Contravariant functor laws:
+//
+//	// Law 1: Identity
+//	// contramap(identity) = identity
+//	identity := func(x int) int { return x }
+//	consumer1 := consumer.Contramap(identity)(consumeInt)
+//	// consumer1 behaves identically to consumeInt
+//
+//	// Law 2: Composition
+//	// contramap(f . g) = contramap(g) . contramap(f)
+//	// Note: composition order is reversed compared to covariant map
+//	f := func(s string) int { n, _ := strconv.Atoi(s); return n }
+//	g := func(b bool) string { if b { return "1" } else { return "0" } }
+//
+//	// These two are equivalent:
+//	consumer2 := consumer.Contramap(func(b bool) int { return f(g(b)) })(consumeInt)
+//	consumer3 := consumer.Contramap(g)(consumer.Contramap(f)(consumeInt))
+//
+// Example - Practical use with type hierarchies:
+//
+//	type Logger interface {
+//	    Log(string)
+//	}
+//
+//	type Message struct {
+//	    Text      string
+//	    Timestamp time.Time
+//	}
+//
+//	// Consumer that logs strings
+//	logString := func(s string) {
+//	    fmt.Println(s)
+//	}
+//
+//	// Contramap to handle Message types
+//	extractText := func(m Message) string {
+//	    return fmt.Sprintf("[%s] %s", m.Timestamp.Format(time.RFC3339), m.Text)
+//	}
+//
+//	logMessage := consumer.Contramap(extractText)(logString)
+//	logMessage(Message{
+//	    Text:      "Hello",
+//	    Timestamp: time.Now(),
+//	}) // Logs: "[2024-01-20T10:00:00Z] Hello"
+//
+// Relationship to Local and Compose:
+//   - Contramap, Local, and Compose are identical in implementation
+//   - Contramap emphasizes the categorical/theoretical aspect
+//   - Local emphasizes the context transformation aspect
+//   - Compose emphasizes the function composition aspect
+//   - Use Contramap when working with category theory concepts
+//   - Use Local when adapting to different contexts
+//   - Use Compose when building functional pipelines
+//
+// Category Theory Background:
+//   - Consumer[A] forms a contravariant functor
+//   - The contravariant functor laws must hold:
+//     1. contramap(id) = id
+//     2. contramap(f ∘ g) = contramap(g) ∘ contramap(f)
+//   - This is dual to the covariant functor (map) operation
+//   - Consumers are contravariant because they consume rather than produce values
+//
+// Use Cases:
+//   - Working with contravariant functors in a categorical style
+//   - Adapting consumers to work with more specific types
+//   - Building type-safe consumer transformations
+//   - Implementing profunctor patterns (Consumer is a profunctor)

 //   - Retry logic with policy configuration and execution context
 //   - Resource management with bracket pattern across multiple contexts
 //
+// # Dependency Injection with the Outer Context
+//
+// The outer Reader context (type parameter R) provides a powerful mechanism for dependency injection
+// in functional programming. This pattern is explained in detail in Scott Wlaschin's talk:
+// "Dependency Injection, The Functional Way" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPlsVVaMoB0
+//
+// ## Core Concept
+//
+// Instead of using traditional OOP dependency injection frameworks, the Reader monad allows you to:
+//  1. Define functions that declare their dependencies as type parameters
+//  2. Compose these functions without providing the dependencies
+//  3. Supply all dependencies at the "end of the world" (program entry point)
+//
+// This approach provides:
+//   - Compile-time safety: Missing dependencies cause compilation errors
+//   - Explicit dependencies: Function signatures show exactly what they need
+//   - Easy testing: Mock dependencies by providing different values
+//   - Pure functions: Dependencies are passed as parameters, not global state
+//
+// ## Examples from the Video Adapted to fp-go
+//
+// ### Example 1: Basic Reader Pattern (Video: "Reader Monad Basics")
+//
+// In the video, Scott shows how to pass configuration through a chain of functions.
+// In fp-go with ReaderReaderIOResult:
+//
+//	// Define your dependencies
+//	type AppConfig struct {
+//	    DatabaseURL string
+//	    APIKey      string
+//	    MaxRetries  int
+//	}
+//
+//	// Functions declare their dependencies via the R type parameter
+//	func getConnectionString() ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, string] {
+//	    return Asks[AppConfig](func(cfg AppConfig) string {
+//	        return cfg.DatabaseURL
+//	    })
+//	}
+//
+//	func connectToDatabase() ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, *sql.DB] {
+//	    return MonadChain(
+//	        getConnectionString(),
+//	        func(connStr string) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, *sql.DB] {
+//	            return FromIO[AppConfig](func() result.Result[*sql.DB] {
+//	                db, err := sql.Open("postgres", connStr)
+//	                return result.FromEither(either.FromError(db, err))
+//	            })
+//	        },
+//	    )
+//	}
+//
+// ### Example 2: Composing Dependencies (Video: "Composing Reader Functions")
+//
+// The video demonstrates how Reader functions compose naturally.
+// In fp-go, you can compose operations that all share the same dependency:
+//
+//	func fetchUser(id int) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, User] {
+//	    return MonadChain(
+//	        connectToDatabase(),
+//	        func(db *sql.DB) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, User] {
+//	            return FromIO[AppConfig](func() result.Result[User] {
+//	                // Query database using db and return user
+//	                // The AppConfig is still available if needed
+//	            })
+//	        },
+//	    )
+//	}
+//
+//	func enrichUser(user User) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, EnrichedUser] {
+//	    return Asks[AppConfig, EnrichedUser](func(cfg AppConfig) EnrichedUser {
+//	        // Use cfg.APIKey to call external service
+//	        return EnrichedUser{User: user, Extra: "data"}
+//	    })
+//	}
+//
+//	// Compose without providing dependencies
+//	pipeline := function.Pipe2(
+//	    fetchUser(123),
+//	    Chain[AppConfig](enrichUser),
+//	)
+//
+//	// Provide dependencies at the end
+//	config := AppConfig{DatabaseURL: "...", APIKey: "...", MaxRetries: 3}
+//	ctx := context.Background()
+//	result := pipeline(config)(ctx)()
+//
+// ### Example 3: Local Context Modification (Video: "Local Environment")
+//
+// The video shows how to temporarily modify the environment for a sub-computation.
+// In fp-go, use the Local function:
+//
+//	// Run a computation with modified configuration
+//	func withRetries(retries int, action ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, string]) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, string] {
+//	    return Local[string](func(cfg AppConfig) AppConfig {
+//	        // Create a modified config with different retry count
+//	        return AppConfig{
+//	            DatabaseURL: cfg.DatabaseURL,
+//	            APIKey:      cfg.APIKey,
+//	            MaxRetries:  retries,
+//	        }
+//	    })(action)
+//	}
+//
+//	// Use it
+//	result := withRetries(5, fetchUser(123))
+//
+// ### Example 4: Testing with Mock Dependencies (Video: "Testing with Reader")
+//
+// The video emphasizes how Reader makes testing easy by allowing mock dependencies.
+// In fp-go:
+//
+//	func TestFetchUser(t *testing.T) {
+//	    // Create a test configuration
+//	    testConfig := AppConfig{
+//	        DatabaseURL: "mock://test",
+//	        APIKey:      "test-key",
+//	        MaxRetries:  1,
+//	    }
+//
+//	    // Run the computation with test config
+//	    ctx := context.Background()
+//	    result := fetchUser(123)(testConfig)(ctx)()
+//
+//	    // Assert on the result
+//	    assert.True(t, either.IsRight(result))
+//	}
+//
+// ### Example 5: Multi-Layer Dependencies (Video: "Nested Readers")
+//
+// The video discusses nested readers for multi-layer architectures.
+// ReaderReaderIOResult provides exactly this with R (outer) and context.Context (inner):
+//
+//	type AppConfig struct {
+//	    DatabaseURL string
+//	}
+//
+//	// Outer context: Application-level configuration (AppConfig)
+//	// Inner context: Request-level context (context.Context)
+//	func handleRequest(userID int) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, Response] {
+//	    return func(cfg AppConfig) readerioresult.ReaderIOResult[context.Context, Response] {
+//	        // cfg is available here (outer context)
+//	        return func(ctx context.Context) ioresult.IOResult[Response] {
+//	            // ctx is available here (inner context)
+//	            // Both cfg and ctx can be used
+//	            return func() result.Result[Response] {
+//	                // Perform operation using both contexts
+//	                select {
+//	                case <-ctx.Done():
+//	                    return result.Error[Response](ctx.Err())
+//	                default:
+//	                    // Use cfg.DatabaseURL to connect
+//	                    return result.Of(Response{})
+//	                }
+//	            }
+//	        }
+//	    }
+//	}
+//
+// ### Example 6: Avoiding Global State (Video: "Problems with Global State")
+//
+// The video criticizes global state and shows how Reader solves this.
+// In fp-go, instead of:
+//
+//	// BAD: Global state
+//	var globalConfig AppConfig
+//
+//	func fetchUser(id int) result.Result[User] {
+//	    // Uses globalConfig implicitly
+//	    db := connectTo(globalConfig.DatabaseURL)
+//	    // ...
+//	}
+//
+// Use Reader to make dependencies explicit:
+//
+//	// GOOD: Explicit dependencies
+//	func fetchUser(id int) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, User] {
+//	    return MonadChain(
+//	        Ask[AppConfig](), // Explicitly request the config
+//	        func(cfg AppConfig) ReaderReaderIOResult[AppConfig, User] {
+//	            // Use cfg explicitly
+//	            return FromIO[AppConfig](func() result.Result[User] {
+//	                db := connectTo(cfg.DatabaseURL)
+//	                // ...
+//	            })
+//	        },
+//	    )
+//	}
+//
+// ## Benefits of This Approach
+//
+// 1. **Type Safety**: The compiler ensures all dependencies are provided
+// 2. **Testability**: Easy to provide mock dependencies for testing
+// 3. **Composability**: Functions compose naturally without dependency wiring
+// 4. **Explicitness**: Function signatures document their dependencies
+// 5. **Immutability**: Dependencies are immutable values, not mutable global state
+// 6. **Flexibility**: Use Local to modify dependencies for sub-computations
+// 7. **Separation of Concerns**: Business logic is separate from dependency resolution
+//
+// ## Comparison with Traditional DI
+//
+// Traditional OOP DI (e.g., Spring, Guice):
+//   - Runtime dependency resolution
+//   - Magic/reflection-based wiring
+//   - Implicit dependencies (hidden in constructors)
+//   - Mutable containers
+//
+// Reader-based DI (fp-go):
+//   - Compile-time dependency resolution
+//   - Explicit function composition
+//   - Explicit dependencies (in type signatures)
+//   - Immutable values
+//
+// ## When to Use Each Layer
+//
+// - **Outer Reader (R)**: Application-level dependencies that rarely change
+//   - Database connection pools
+//   - API keys and secrets
+//   - Feature flags
+//   - Application configuration
+//
+// - **Inner Reader (context.Context)**: Request-level dependencies that change per operation
+//   - Request IDs and tracing
+//   - Cancellation signals
+//   - Deadlines and timeouts
+//   - User authentication tokens
+//
+// This two-layer approach mirrors the video's discussion of nested readers and provides
+// a clean separation between application-level and request-level concerns.

+// Traverse transforms a ReaderReaderIOResult computation by applying a function that produces

+// This function is useful when you have a computation that depends on environment R2 and
+// produces a value of type A, and you want to transform it using a function that takes A
+// and produces a computation depending on environment R1. The result is a curried function
+// that takes R1 first, then R2, and produces a computation with context.Context and error handling.
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - R2: The outer environment type from the original computation
+//   - R1: The inner environment type introduced by the transformation
+//   - A: The input value type
+//   - B: The output value type
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - f: A Kleisli arrow that transforms A into a ReaderReaderIOResult[R1, B]
+//
+// Returns:

+//     which is func(R1) ReaderReaderIOResult[R2, B]
+//
+// The function preserves error handling and IO effects while reordering the environment dependencies.
+// This is the generalized version of Sequence that also applies a transformation function.
+//

+//	}
+//	type UserConfig struct {
+//	    UserID int
+//	}

+
+// TraverseReader transforms a ReaderReaderIOResult computation by applying a Reader-based function,
+// effectively introducing a new environment dependency.
+//
+// This function takes a Reader-based transformation (Kleisli arrow) and returns a function that
+// can transform a ReaderReaderIOResult. The result allows you to provide the Reader's environment (R1)
+// first, which then produces a ReaderReaderIOResult that depends on environment R2.
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - R2: The outer environment type from the original ReaderReaderIOResult
+//   - R1: The inner environment type introduced by the Reader transformation
+//   - A: The input value type
+//   - B: The output value type
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - f: A Reader-based Kleisli arrow that transforms A to B using environment R1
+//
+// Returns:
+//   - A function that takes a ReaderReaderIOResult[R2, A] and returns a Kleisli[R2, R1, B],
+//     which is func(R1) ReaderReaderIOResult[R2, B]
+//
+// The function preserves error handling and IO effects while adding the Reader environment dependency
+// and reordering the environment parameters. This is useful when you want to introduce a pure
+// (non-IO, non-error) environment dependency to an existing computation.
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//	type AppConfig struct {
+//	    Timeout int
+//	}
+//	type UserPreferences struct {
+//	    Theme string
+//	}
+//

+// FromRefinement creates a Type codec from a Refinement (Prism).
+//
+// A Refinement[A, B] represents the concept that B is a specialized/refined version of A.
+// For example, PositiveInt is a refinement of int, or NonEmptyString is a refinement of string.
+// This function converts a Prism[A, B] into a Type[B, A, A] codec that can validate and transform
+// between the base type A and the refined type B.
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - A: The base/broader type (e.g., int, string)
+//   - B: The refined/specialized type (e.g., PositiveInt, NonEmptyString)
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - refinement: A Refinement[A, B] (which is a Prism[A, B]) that defines:
+//   - GetOption: A → Option[B] - attempts to refine A to B (may fail if refinement conditions aren't met)
+//   - ReverseGet: B → A - converts refined type back to base type (always succeeds)
+//
+// Returns:
+//   - A Type[B, A, A] codec where:
+//   - Decode: A → Validation[B] - validates that A satisfies refinement conditions and produces B
+//   - Encode: B → A - converts refined type back to base type using ReverseGet
+//   - Is: Checks if a value is of type B
+//   - Name: Descriptive name including the refinement's string representation
+//
+// The codec:
+//   - Uses the refinement's GetOption for validation during decoding
+//   - Returns validation errors if the refinement conditions are not met
+//   - Uses the refinement's ReverseGet for encoding (always succeeds)
+//   - Provides context-aware error messages indicating why refinement failed
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//	// Define a refinement for positive integers
+//	positiveIntPrism := prism.MakePrismWithName(
+//	    func(n int) option.Option[int] {
+//	        if n > 0 {
+//	            return option.Some(n)
+//	        }
+//	        return option.None[int]()
+//	    },
+//	    func(n int) int { return n },
+//	    "PositiveInt",
+//	)
+//
+//	// Create a codec from the refinement
+//	positiveIntCodec := codec.FromRefinement[int, int](positiveIntPrism)
+//
+//	// Decode: validates the refinement condition
+//	result := positiveIntCodec.Decode(42)   // Success: Right(42)
+//	result = positiveIntCodec.Decode(-5)    // Failure: validation error
+//	result = positiveIntCodec.Decode(0)     // Failure: validation error
+//
+//	// Encode: converts back to base type
+//	encoded := positiveIntCodec.Encode(42)  // Returns: 42
+//
+// Use cases:
+//   - Creating codecs for refined types (positive numbers, non-empty strings, etc.)
+//   - Validating that values meet specific constraints
+//   - Building type-safe APIs with refined types
+//   - Composing refinements with other codecs using Pipe
+//
+// Common refinement patterns:
+//   - Numeric constraints: PositiveInt, NonNegativeFloat, BoundedInt
+//   - String constraints: NonEmptyString, EmailAddress, URL
+//   - Collection constraints: NonEmptyArray, UniqueElements
+//   - Domain-specific constraints: ValidAge, ValidZipCode, ValidCreditCard
+//
+// Note: The refinement's GetOption returning None will result in a validation error
+// with a message indicating the type cannot be refined. For more specific error messages,
+// consider using MakeType directly with custom validation logic.

+// TypeToPrism converts a Type codec into a Prism optic.
+//
+// A Type[A, S, S] represents a bidirectional codec that can decode S to A (with validation)
+// and encode A back to S. A Prism[S, A] is an optic that can optionally extract an A from S
+// and always construct an S from an A.
+//
+// This conversion bridges the codec and optics worlds, allowing you to use validation-based
+// codecs as prisms for functional optics composition.
+//
+// Type Parameters:
+//   - S: The source/encoded type (both input and output)
+//   - A: The decoded/focus type
+//
+// Parameters:
+//   - t: A Type[A, S, S] codec where:
+//   - Decode: S → Validation[A] (may fail with validation errors)
+//   - Encode: A → S (always succeeds)
+//   - Name: Provides a descriptive name for the type
+//
+// Returns:
+//   - A Prism[S, A] where:
+//   - GetOption: S → Option[A] (Some if decode succeeds, None if validation fails)
+//   - ReverseGet: A → S (uses the codec's Encode function)
+//   - Name: Inherited from the Type's name
+//
+// The conversion works as follows:
+//   - GetOption: Decodes the value and converts validation result to Option
+//     (Right(a) → Some(a), Left(errors) → None)
+//   - ReverseGet: Directly uses the Type's Encode function
+//   - Name: Preserves the Type's descriptive name
+//
+// Example:
+//
+//	// Create a codec for positive integers
+//	positiveInt := codec.MakeType[int, int, int](
+//	    "PositiveInt",
+//	    func(i any) result.Result[int] { ... },

+//	        }
+//	        return validation.Success(i)
+//	    },
+//	    func(i int) int { return i },

+//
+//	// Convert to prism
+//	prism := codec.TypeToPrism(positiveInt)
+//
+//	// Use as prism
+//	value := prism.GetOption(42)   // Some(42) - validation succeeds
+//	value = prism.GetOption(-5)    // None - validation fails
+//	result := prism.ReverseGet(10) // 10 - encoding always succeeds
+//
+// Use cases:
+//   - Composing codecs with other optics (lenses, prisms, traversals)
+//   - Using validation logic in optics pipelines
+//   - Building complex data transformations with functional composition
+//   - Integrating type-safe parsing with optics-based data access
+//
+// Note: The prism's GetOption will return None for any validation failure,
+// discarding the specific error details. If you need error information,

+
+// ApplicativeMonoid creates a Monoid instance for Validate[I, A] given a Monoid[A].
+//
+// This function lifts a monoid operation on values of type A to work with validators
+// that produce values of type A. It uses the applicative functor structure of the
+// nested Reader types to combine validators while preserving their validation context.
+//
+// The resulting monoid allows you to:
+//   - Combine multiple validators that produce monoidal values
+//   - Run validators in parallel and merge their results using the monoid operation
+//   - Build complex validators compositionally from simpler ones
+//
+// # Type Parameters
+//
+//   - I: The input type that validators accept
+//   - A: The output type that validators produce (must have a Monoid instance)
+//
+// # Parameters
+//
+//   - m: A Monoid[A] that defines how to combine values of type A
+//
+// # Returns
+//
+// A Monoid[Validate[I, A]] that can combine validators using the applicative structure.
+//
+// # How It Works
+//
+// The function composes three layers of applicative monoids:
+//  1. The innermost layer uses validation.ApplicativeMonoid(m) to combine Validation[A] values
+//  2. The middle layer wraps this in reader.ApplicativeMonoid for the Context dependency
+//  3. The outer layer wraps everything in reader.ApplicativeMonoid for the input I dependency
+//
+// This creates a monoid that:
+//   - Takes the same input I for both validators
+//   - Threads the same Context through both validators
+//   - Combines successful results using the monoid operation on A
+//   - Accumulates validation errors from both validators if either fails
+//
+// # Example
+//
+// Combining string validators using string concatenation:

+//
+//	// Define two validators that extract different parts
+//	validator1 := func(input string) validate.Reader[validation.Context, validation.Validation[string]] {
+//	    return func(ctx validation.Context) validation.Validation[string] {
+//	        return validation.Success("Hello ")
+//	    }
+//	}
+//
+//	validator2 := func(input string) validate.Reader[validation.Context, validation.Validation[string]] {
+//	    return func(ctx validation.Context) validation.Validation[string] {
+//	        return validation.Success("World")
+//	    }
+//	}
+//
+//	// Combine them - results will be concatenated
+//	combined := validatorMonoid.Concat(validator1, validator2)
+//	// When run, produces validation.Success("Hello World")
+//
+// Combining numeric validators using addition:
+//
+//	import (
+//	    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/number"

+//	validatorMonoid := validate.ApplicativeMonoid[string, int](intMonoid)
+//
+//	// Validators that extract and validate different numeric fields
+//	// Results will be summed together
+//
+// # Notes
+//
+//   - Both validators receive the same input value I
+//   - If either validator fails, all errors are accumulated
+//   - If both succeed, their results are combined using the monoid operation

+
+// Package validate provides functional validation primitives for building composable validators.
+//
+// This package implements a validation framework based on functional programming principles,
+// allowing you to build complex validators from simple, composable pieces. It uses the
+// Reader monad pattern to thread validation context through nested structures.
+//
+// # Core Concepts
+//
+// The validate package is built around several key types:
+//
+//   - Validate[I, A]: A validator that transforms input I to output A with validation context
+//   - Validation[A]: The result of validation, either errors or a valid value A
+//   - Context: Tracks the path through nested structures for detailed error messages
+//
+// # Type Structure
+//
+// A Validate[I, A] is defined as:
+//
+//	Reader[I, Decode[A]]]
+//
+// This means:
+//  1. It takes an input of type I
+//  2. Returns a Reader that depends on validation Context
+//  3. That Reader produces a Validation[A] (Either[Errors, A])
+//
+// This layered structure allows validators to:
+//   - Access the input value
+//   - Track validation context (path in nested structures)
+//   - Accumulate multiple validation errors
+//   - Compose with other validators
+//
+// # Validation Context
+//
+// The Context type tracks the path through nested data structures during validation.
+// Each ContextEntry contains:
+//   - Key: The field name or map key
+//   - Type: The expected type name
+//   - Actual: The actual value being validated
+//
+// This provides detailed error messages like "at user.address.zipCode: expected string, got number".
+//
+// # Monoid Operations
+//
+// The package provides ApplicativeMonoid for combining validators using monoid operations.
+// This allows you to:
+//   - Combine multiple validators that produce monoidal values
+//   - Accumulate results from parallel validations
+//   - Build complex validators from simpler ones
+//
+// # Example Usage
+//
+// Basic validation structure:
+//
+//	import (
+//	    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/optics/codec/validate"
+//	    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/optics/codec/validation"
+//	)
+//
+//	// A validator that checks if a string is non-empty
+//	func nonEmptyString(input string) validate.Reader[validation.Context, validation.Validation[string]] {
+//	    if input == "" {
+//	        return validation.FailureWithMessage[string](input, "string must not be empty")
+//	    }
+//	    return func(ctx validation.Context) validation.Validation[string] {
+//	        return validation.Success(input)
+//	    }
+//	}
+//
+//	// Create a Validate function
+//	var validateNonEmpty validate.Validate[string, string] = func(input string) validate.Reader[validation.Context, validation.Validation[string]] {
+//	    return nonEmptyString(input)
+//	}
+//
+// Combining validators with monoids:
+//
+//	import (
+//	    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/monoid"
+//	    "github.com/IBM/fp-go/v2/string"
+//	)
+//
+//	// Combine string validators using string concatenation monoid
+//	stringMonoid := string.Monoid
+//	validatorMonoid := validate.ApplicativeMonoid[string, string](stringMonoid)
+//
+//	// Now you can combine validators that produce strings
+//	combined := validatorMonoid.Concat(validator1, validator2)
+//
+// # Integration with Codec
+//
+// This package is designed to work with the optics/codec package for building
+// type-safe encoders and decoders with validation. Validators can be composed
+// into codecs that handle serialization, deserialization, and validation in a
+// unified way.
+//
+// # Error Handling
+//
+// Validation errors are accumulated using the Either monad's applicative instance.
+// This means:
+//   - Multiple validation errors can be collected in a single pass
+//   - Errors include full context path for debugging
+//   - Errors can be formatted for logging or user display
+//
+// See the validation package for error types and formatting options.
