If you are to boil one egg for 5 minutes, the other for
7 minutes, and the third one for 10 minutes, how long time
does it take to boil all three eggs?

In Lisp, there are several ways to solve this, it can be
put as

  (+ 5 7 10)

or maybe

  (apply #'+ '(5 7 10))

or ... well, what do you prefer?
