/**********************************************************************
 * $scientific_alu example -- Verilog HDL shell module
 *
 * Scientific ALU C model, combinational logic version.
 *
 * Note: The Verilog language does not permit floating point numbers
 * to be connected to module ports.  However, the language provides
 * built-in system functions which convert real numbers to 64-bit
 * vectors, and vice-versa, so the real values can be passed through
 * a module the port connection. These built-in system functions are
 * $realtobits() and $bitstoreal().
