#include "mathlink.h"

/* send Plus[2,3] over a link */

void f(MLINK lp)
{
    if(! MLPutType(lp, MLTKFUNC))
        { /* unable to send the function type to lp */ }

    if(! MLPutArgCount(lp, 2))
        { /* unable to put the number of arguments to lp */ }

    if(! MLPutSymbol(lp, "Plus"))
        { /* unable to put the symbol to lp */ }

    if(! MLPutInteger(lp, 2))
        { /* unable to put the integer to lp */ }

    if(! MLPutInteger(lp, 3))
        { /* unable to put the integer to lp */ }

    if(! MLEndPacket(lp))
        { /* unable to send the end-of-packet indicator */ }

    if(! MLFlush(lp))
