+In this example the @Reader@ monad provides access to variable bindings.
+Bindings are a @Map@ of integer variables.
+The variable @count@ contains number of variables in the bindings.
+You can see how to run a Reader effect and retrieve data from it
+with 'runReader', how to access the Reader data with 'ask' and 'asks'.
