To all those who equate MyHDL with "procedural input", just because it is pure Python, please hold your horses for a minute.

HDLs like Verilog and VHDL have both procedural and concurrent semantics. The concurrent part is very specific: fine-grained, massive, but tightly controlled through event-driven semantics. The only thing necessary to emulate that in Python are generators (functions with state), which is a pure Python concept , and an event-driven scheduler (implemented in a Simulation object).

As a result, the semantics of MyHDL, in particular its concurrent semantics, are basically identical to Verilog and VHDL semantics.
