Bob Green asks for a function that returns the number of arguments of a
function.  since the number of valid arguments is not a single number for
most of the functions worth asking this question, Common Lisp does not
provide one.  however, the lambda list is usually available, one way or the
other.  ANSI Common Lisp provides `function-lambda-expression', the
documentation of which you will find at
