[myhdl-list] Decorator Question

[Christopher L. <loz...@fr...>]

I just finished the first draft of the translation of Martin Gaitan's 
Introductory document to English.

I am sure I made some mistakes.  But I know I did not get Generators 
right.  It is not too hard to understand them in Python.  But I think my 
larger problem is understanding what they represent in hardware.  I 
presume that my mental model of hardware is too simplistic.

And it is not just me.  I suspect that other newbies will have a hard 
time understanding generators.

So what do generators represent in hardware?  what is the difference 
between @instance, @always, and @always_comb from a hardware perspective?

There is a memory example in the documentation, but that did not clear 
it up in my mind either.

Much appreciated.
