#### Exercise `denot-church` (recommended)
Church numerals are more general than natural numbers in that they
represent paths. A path consists of `n` edges and `n + 1` vertices.
We store the vertices in a vector of length `n + 1` in reverse
order. The edges in the path map the ith vertex to the `i + 1` vertex.
The following function `D^suc` (for denotation of successor) constructs
a table whose entries are all the edges in the path.
```
D^suc : (n : ) → Vec Value (suc n) → Value
D^suc zero (a[0] ∷ []) = ⊥
D^suc (suc i) (a[i+1] ∷ a[i] ∷ ls) = a[i] ↦ a[i+1] ⊔ D^suc i (a[i] ∷ ls)
```
We use the following auxilliary function to obtain the last element of
a non-empty vector. (This formulation is more convenient for our
purposes than the one in the Agda standard library.)
```
vec-last : ∀{n : } → Vec Value (suc n) → Value
vec-last {0} (a ∷ []) = a
vec-last {suc n} (a ∷ b ∷ ls) = vec-last (b ∷ ls)
```
The function `Dᶜ` computes the denotation of the nth Church numeral
for a given path.
```
Dᶜ : (n : ) → Vec Value (suc n) → Value
Dᶜ n (a[n] ∷ ls) = (D^suc n (a[n] ∷ ls)) ↦ (vec-last (a[n] ∷ ls)) ↦ a[n]
```
* The Church numeral for 0 ignores its first argument and returns
its second argument, so for the singleton path consisting of
just `a[0]`, its denotation is
⊥ ↦ a[0] ↦ a[0]
* The Church numeral for `suc n` takes two arguments:
a successor function whose denotation is given by `D^suc`,
and the start of the path (last of the vector).
It returns the `n + 1` vertex in the path.
(D^suc (suc n) (a[n+1] ∷ a[n] ∷ ls)) ↦ (vec-last (a[n] ∷ ls)) ↦ a[n+1]
The exercise is to prove that for any path `ls`, the meaning of the
Church numeral `n` is `Dᶜ n ls`.
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 : ) → ∅ , ★ , ★ ⊢ ★
apply-n zero = # 0
apply-n (suc n) = # 1 · apply-n n
church : (n : ) → ∅ ⊢ ★
church n = ƛ ƛ apply-n n
```
Prove the following theorem.
denot-church : ∀{n : }{ls : Vec Value (suc n)}
→ `∅ ⊢ church n ↓ Dᶜ n ls
```
