Practical uses of `InvariantMonoidal` appear in the context of codecs, that is interfaces to capture both serialization and deserialization for a given format. Other notable examples are [`Semigroup`](semigroup.md) and [`Monoid`](monoid.md).

This tutorial first shows how `Semigroup` is `InvariantMonoidal`, and how this can be used create `Semigroup` instances by combining other `Semigroup` instances. Secondly, we present a complete example of `Codec` for the CSV format, and show how it is `InvariantMonoidal`. Lastly, we present an alternative definition of `InvariantMonoidal` as a generalization of `Invariant`, and show that both definitions are equivalent.

# `InvariantMonoidal` as a generalization of `Invariant`

To better understand the motivations behind the `InvariantMonoidal` type class, we show how one could naturally arrive to it's definition by generalizing the concept of `Invariant` functor. This reflection is analogous to the one presented in [Free Applicative Functors by Paolo Capriotti](http://www.paolocapriotti.com/assets/applicative.pdf) to show how [`Applicative`](applicative.md) are a generalization of [`Functor`](functor.md).

Given an `Invariant[F]` instance for a certain *context* `F[_]`, its `imap` method gives a way to lift two *unary* pure functions `A => B` and `B => A` into *contextualized* functions `F[A] => F[B]`. But what about functions of other arity?
