        byte[] parameter_list = { 2, 2 };
        byte return_type = 2;
        bool need_storage = false;
        string name = "AdditionContractExample";
        string version = "1";
        string author = "chris";
        string email = "chris@abc.com";
        string description = "This is an Addition Contract. It takes in 2 inputs, adds them and returns the result.";

        Blockchain.CreateContract(script, parameter_list, return_type, need_storage, name, version, author, email, description);
    }
}
