next = S $ do st <- get
              case st of
              [] -> return Nothing
              (x:xs) -> do put xs
                           return (Just x)

@md2perpe This is an example from Real World Haskell.
The get is defined as:

get :: State s s
get = State $ \s -> (s, s)

The (>>=) is defined as:

bindState :: State s a -> (a -> State s b) -> State s b
bindState m k = State $ \s -> let (a, s') = runState m s
                              in runState (k a) s'

We can apply function (\s -> let (a, s') = runState m s ...) on st, so st must have type of s for State s a
In the Supply example, State [a] (Maybe a) ... I think I know...
