Although there are "getting started" tutorials on how to setup NIOS, e.g. this, there are some basic questions that I didn't find the answers for them.
1- DE0 has no LCD but it has VGA connector. So, when I write a hello world program, what should I do to see the message? Will that display the message on the Quartus window?
2- It seems that NIOS is accessed with C codes. So the question is how can I pass my VHDL code to the NIOS? For example, I have implemented a Booth multiplication algorithm via VHDL. Now, I want to send two numbers with NIOS (the C code) and perform the multiplication with the VHDL code and then display the result (again prinft on NIOS side).
Maybe these are simple questions but I didn't find a clear methodology for that. Surely there exists tutorials and manuals for that, but I have missed that.
