While this is a good exercise, the Cont monad is not very useful in Scala since none of the tail calls are eliminated. It is isomorphic to Free[Id], or Free[Function0], or scalaz.Trampoline, which does optimize tail calls. |

Good points, thanks. Yeah, the tail call problem is a PITA. Trampoline is the way to go. |

I've cobbled together a continuations monad based on
Control.Monad.Cont. Would love to share and/or get some feedback on it. It's still a bit of a work in progress, but most of the basics are in place.
