The 1364-2001 syntax explicitly allows declaring scalar nets as "signed".
I mean, I would understand if a single syntax statement said that you can declare nets with or without a range
and with or without "signed". Then I would understand that "signed" is needed for the vector case, and since
all the cases are together in the same syntax, it would also allow you to declare a net without a range and with
"signed".
But that's not the case.
There are separate syntaxes for scalar net declarations and vector net declarations.
The scalar net declaration also allows you to use the "signed" keyword even though that syntax is only for scalars.
My question is, what is the meaning of a signed one-bit variable, i.e., sign bit only, without magnitude ?
Thanks,
Shalom
