What is the difference between Verilog and VHDL

Question

Accepted Answer

Verilog and VHDL are hardware description languages used for designing digital circuits.

Verilog is more popular in industry while VHDL is more popular in academia.
Verilog is more concise and easier to learn while VHDL is more verbose and has a steeper learning curve.
Verilog is more suitable for designing digital systems with complex timing while VHDL is more suitable for designing complex systems with multiple clock domains.
Verilog has a C-like syntax while VHDL has a Pascal-like syntax.
Verilog is used for designing FPGAs, ASICs, and digital systems while VHDL is used for designing digital systems and modeling digital circuits.
Verilog has a wider range of built-in primitives while VHDL has a more powerful type system.
