Answer from cs61c-bg (Spencer Ahrens 16187781) for Question 1
In C, the arguments are simply listed in the first line of the functino after the name of the function with a declaration of their type.  When the function is called, the arguments are passed within parentheses after the function name.  In Verilog, the declaration is made similarly, but the types are not declared, and when the function is called, the connection between the arguments is made by calling the name of the argument within the callee preceded by a period, and then following it with the previous variable name in parentheses.
