What should supremum do if you have no elements in the sequence?numpy throws an error too:
In [1]: import numpy as np
In [2]: np.max(np.array([]))
ValueError: zero-size array to reduction operation maximum which has no identity

How would you like if `supremum` tolerated the `f` elements?
Now:
```
{ f 0 1 2 } supremum
-> error is thrown
{ f f f f } supremum
-> error is thrown
```
Proposition:
```
{ f 0 1 2 } supremum
-> 2
{ f f f f } supremum
-> f
```
Current code:
```
: supremum ( seq -- elt )
[ ] [ max ] map-reduce ;
```
Proposed code:
```
: supremum ( seq -- elt )
[ ] [ 2dup and [ max ] [ dupd ? ] if ] map-reduce ;
```
If you like what you are seeing, I'll make a formal PRoposal.
