## Idea
When `X` is a pointed type, the suspension of `X` has nice properties
### The suspension of a pointed type
```agda
suspension-Pointed-Type :
{l : Level} → Pointed-Type l → Pointed-Type l
pr1 (suspension-Pointed-Type X) = suspension (type-Pointed-Type X)
pr2 (suspension-Pointed-Type X) = north-suspension
```
#### Suspension structure induced by a pointed type
```agda
constant-suspension-structure-Pointed-Type :
{l1 l2 : Level} (X : UU l1) (Y : Pointed-Type l2) →
suspension-structure X (type-Pointed-Type Y)
pr1 (constant-suspension-structure-Pointed-Type X Y) =
point-Pointed-Type Y
pr1 (pr2 (constant-suspension-structure-Pointed-Type X Y)) =
point-Pointed-Type Y
pr2 (pr2 (constant-suspension-structure-Pointed-Type X Y)) =
const X refl
```
#### Suspension structure induced by a map into a loop space
The following function takes a map `X → Ω Y` and returns a suspension structure
on `Y`.
```agda
module _
{l1 l2 : Level} (X : UU l1) (Y : Pointed-Type l2)
where
suspension-structure-map-into-Ω :
(X → type-Ω Y) → suspension-structure X (type-Pointed-Type Y)
pr1 (suspension-structure-map-into-Ω f) = point-Pointed-Type Y
pr1 (pr2 (suspension-structure-map-into-Ω f)) = point-Pointed-Type Y
pr2 (pr2 (suspension-structure-map-into-Ω f)) = f
