&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;To find square of a number and add one.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add logs to the see how the result is formed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Should be able to add more functions easily like multiplyThree.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Functions defined should be composable in any order (we can multiplyThree before addOne or vice versa).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We will solve this problem using a monad design pattern in a step by step thought process.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
