| Description |
The example in 9.3.2 has a few minor errors. The "$stop;" should be deleted from the code. It was copied from the original version of the example, which was run in interactive mode, but in this version, it would stop the simulation in the middle, and it serves no purpose here. The word "Results:" should be in regular Times font, since it is not part of the output printed by the code. In the following text: "In this example, an and gate instance and1 is "patched" as an or gate by a force procedural statement that forces its output to the value of its logical or inputs, and an assign procedural statement of logical and values is "patched" as an assign procedural statement of logical or values." The operators are not logical operators, but rather bit-wise operators, thought it does not make a difference here. In general the text is a little confusing. I propose to reword it as follows: "In this example, an *and* gate instance and1 is "patched" to act like an *or* gate by a *force* procedural statement that forces its output to the value of its ORed inputs, and an *assign* procedural statement of ANDed values is "patched" to act like an *assign* statement of ORed values."

| Fix |
In the example in 9.3.2, DELETE "$stop;" from the code. CHANGE the word "Results:" to Times font. CHANGE the following text: "In this example, an and gate instance and1 is "patched" as an or gate by a force procedural statement that forces its output to the value of its logical or inputs, and an assign procedural statement of logical and values is "patched" as an assign procedural statement of logical or values." TO "In this example, an *and* gate instance and1 is "patched" to act like an *or* gate by a *force* procedural statement that forces its output to the value of its ORed inputs, and an *assign* procedural statement of ANDed values is "patched" to act like an *assign* statement of ORed values." |
