+The 'Either' type represents values with two possibilities: a value of
+type @'Either' a b@ is either @'Left' a@ or @'Right' b@.
 
+The 'Either' type is sometimes used to represent a value which is
+either correct or an error; by convention, the 'Left' constructor is
+used to hold an error value and the 'Right' constructor is used to
+hold a correct value (mnemonic: \"right\" also means \"correct\").
