10 years ago --- Quote Start --- A lot of people like Verilog because of its similarities with C, --- Quote End --- That was one of the things I thought about when I was choosing between Verilog & VHDL to learn first. My main job is a C++ programmer, so I thought "Verilog's similar to C, cool", but then I thought "hang on, it's for a totally different thing, why do I want it to be similar?". At least while I'm learning, I'd rather have something a bit stricter so I have to be more precise, and don't really care that it's not like C - in fact, not being like C means that I'm less likely to think like a programmer, which will probably help :-)
