Actually, browsing the forum https://devforums.apple.com/message/981127#981127
it seems an issue with playground and REPL only, ignore my previous comment.
I'm having trouble getting this to work. Here's my JSON Dictionary:
[items: (
{
description = 123;
id = 1;
name = "iPone 4";
why = 123;
},
{
description = afasfdasfd13;
id = 2;
name = "iPhone 6";
why = 23123123123;
},
{
description = "";
id = 3;
name = "";
why = "";
}
)]
It crashes on
return asDict(item) >>>= {
mkItem <*> int($0, "id")
<*> string($0, "name")
<*> string($0, "why")
}
With the message code EXC_I386_GPFLT
.
What could be going wrong? I'm using Xcode 6.0.1

Trying your code in beta6 (playground), line 52:
does not properly call description, i replace it with:
I wonder why string interpolation does not call description by default of struct/class
