Given a list of functions that transform a value, what is the most idiomatic way to apply them? Example:

let
    transformations = [ String.replace "dogs" "cats"
                      , String.replace "bark" "purr"
                      ]
    str = "dogs are the best, they bark"
in
    foldl (t acc -> t acc) str rs

I don’t like the (t acc -> t acc) which seems redundant. But I couldn’t come up with another way of writing the last line.

Of course in this simple example I could pull out the String.replace into a function transform (s, r) = String.replace s r. But in my use case the functions are arbitrary. Also I think I can learn something about the language that way 🙂
