VHDL or verilog is better to learn?

vhdl book

Hi,

I'm wishing to learn VHDL, but I'm unsure which book(s) would be best. I've got a local library to source the book "VHDL Programming By Example", but after reading a number of reviews (and the first chapter), it seems to have quite a number of errors in it, which obviously isn't too good if this is what I should be learning from; despite this fact, the author does have a good teaching style. Either way, I wonder if anybody could recommend a couple of solid VHDL resources and/or books? I'm very comfortable with C/C++ but quite literally, that's as far as my knowledge goes.

Thank you.

Thank you - I shall do that, although to be honest I was hoping for some personal opinions, since I'm guessing with the knowledge of people here they'd have an idea of what books would be useful.

vhdl best book

TickleMonster,

Be aware that a lot of people may recommend Ashenden's "Designer's Guide to VHDL". While it is a really good reference book to give you insight into the lower level workings of VHDL, it's really not a very good intro book.

vhdl book recommendation

The Student's Guide to VHDL by Ashenden is good one. The book by Douglus Perry is also good.

To learn the VHDL, you need to practise. Not single book can teach how to code, they just talk about the coding style. The real time you need to apply your own thoughts.
