+#### Exercise `denot-church` (recommended)
+
+Church numerals are more general than natural numbers in that they
+represent paths in a graph. The following `Path` predicate specifies
+when a value of the form `f ↦ a ↦ b` represents a path from the
+starting point `a` to the end point `b` in the graph of the function `f`.
+
+```
+data Path : (n : ℕ) → Value → Set where
+  singleton : ∀{f a} → Path 0 (f ↦ a ↦ a)
+  edge : ∀{n f a b c}
+     → Path n (f ↦ a ↦ b)
+     → b ↦ c ⊑ f
+     → Path (suc n) (f ↦ a ↦ c)
+```
+
+* A singleton path is of the form `f ↦ a ↦ a`.
+
+* If there is a path from `a` to `b` and
+  an edge from `b` to `c` in graph of `f`,
+  then there is a path from `a` to `c`.
+
+This exercise is to prove that if `f ↦ a ↦ b` is a path of length `n`,
+then `f ↦ a ↦ b` is a meaning of the Church numeral `n`.
+
+To fascilitate talking about arbitrary Church numerals, the following
+`church` function builds the term for the nth Church numeral,
+using the auxilliary function `apply-n`.
+
+```
+apply-n : (n : ℕ) → ∅ , ★ , ★ ⊢ ★
+apply-n zero = # 0
+apply-n (suc n) = # 1 · apply-n n
+
+church : (n : ℕ) → ∅ ⊢ ★
+church n = ƛ ƛ apply-n n 
+```
+
+Prove the following theorem.
+
+    denot-church : ∀{n v}
+       → Path n v
+         -----------------
+       → `∅ ⊢ church n ↓ v

 ## Denotations and denotational equality
 
 Next we define a notion of denotational equality based on the above
