Hi, I fear you are a beginner, if so please don't worry about and it can be simple to solve every problem arise but do a step by step learning of how to do things. We return forever beginner when we learn something new, I am beginner too.

rromano001 thanks for detailed information. I have read that book freerange VHDL indeed is my desk book rightnow. The website you showed looks really nice and organized, I'll keep an eye on it.
Also I understand what you said about experimenting with FPGA by performing some usefull examples and practice, I agreed on this, and this will be my first task after finishing my project. Problem is that I have this project to do for my course, and I have seen it doesn't require the experience that you mentioned, I have checked introductories books like rapid prototyping of digital systems, design recipes of digital systems, the Altera video lectures, and they all are good books, but they are always ahead to design a some frecuency divider or a Microprocessor from scratch, but when is about arithmetic of integers, fractional, floating and fixed points, I can't find much and the most important "updated" information.
You are right, I am a beginner in this, but not that much in programming low level language, by managing registers and memory stack I could implement a divition, square roots whatever using only Assembly Language, but that is not convenient to do. That's where I've found there is a fixed point library where one can easily define fixed point numbers and program arithmetic very easily, which is I really want to do, for this i'm considering any solution, even considering if Verilog would be better, or if Altera has its own library for this, etc.
My only board available is DE1, but I think simulator would be more than enough for what I need, since i won't make use of the softcore and the other IP included in the development board.
