 The first command we use is the `mdi.MDI_Send_Command` function. 
 The argument to this function is the command to send and the engine we would like to send the command to.
 When using `MDI_Send_Command`, we use `<` to tell the engine to send data to the driver, and `>` to tell the driver to send data to the engine.
-
 For example, to get the number of atoms in the system, we first call `mdi.MDI_Send_Command("<NATOMS", lammps)` to tell LAMMPS to send the number of atoms.
-Then, we call `mdi.MDI_Recv` to receive the data.

+After we have sent the command to the engine, we have to retrieve the data.
+This is done with the `mdi.MDI_Recv` function.
 When using `mdi.MDI_Recv`, we have to tell MDI how many values we expect to get back and the data type for the value or values we expect to receive.
+They syntax is
+
+```python
+mdi.MDI_Recv(EXPECTED_NUMBER_OF_VALUES, DATA_TYPE, ENGINE_COMMUNICATOR)
+```
+
+The expected data types are defined in the MDI library.
+For example, `mdi.MDI_INT` is the data type for an integer, and `mdi.MDI_DOUBLE` is the data type for a double (decimal) value.
