Algebras of endofunctors #

This file defines (co)algebras of an endofunctor, and provides the category instance for them. It also defines the forgetful functor from the category of (co)algebras. It is shown that the structure map of the initial algebra of an endofunctor is an isomorphism. Furthermore, it is shown that for an adjunction F ⊣ G the category of algebras over F is equivalent to the category of coalgebras over G.
