Hello friends, 

I am a beginner in Quartus. I am using a Square root megafunction. The code is: 

sqroot<= mysqrt_alt_restoring_sqrt_cta sqr(.aclr(clear),.clken(clkenable),.clock(CLOCK_50),.rad(vz),.root_result(sqroot)); 

 

Its showing me the error that its expecting ";"  

I am not able to figure out why I am getting this error and if my format of writing is wrong.  

I am sorry taht this error may be really silly, but I am really not able to figure out why is it is arising.As teh line itself and the line after and before it end with ";" 

Please help. 

Thanks in advance.

The text portion  

--- Quote Start ---  

sqroot<= 

--- Quote End ---  

is wrong. A module instantiation doesn't return nothing unlike a function or operator.

Thanks for the reply guys, 

 

Well I added <= to the code because, without that it was giving me an error that its expecting "<=" or ';"  

 

I am using Verilog.  

 

thanks

The identifier sqroot must not be double-used.
