build a system that will evaluate arithmetic expressions. Instead of
returning a simple integer as a result, it will deliver the correct
answer along with a count of the number of operations performed during
-the calculuation. That is, the desired behavior should be like this:

- # lift ( + ) (lift ( / ) (unit 20) (unit 2)) (lift ( * ) (unit 2) (unit 3)) 0;;

+ Here, `lift` is the function that uses `bind` to prepare an ordinary
arithmetic operator (such as addition `( + )`, division `( / )`, or
multiplication `( * )`) to recieve objects from the counting monad as
arguments. The response of the interpreter says two things: that
with a starting point (0 relevant computations have occurred previous
to the current computation).

divide by zero (so there should be no int option types anywhere in
your solution).

2. Prove that your monad satisfies the monad laws. First, give
examples illustrating specific cases in which the monad laws are
