What is ModelSim?

ModelSim is a widely used simulation and verification tool for hardware description languages (HDLs) like VHDL and Verilog. It is commonly used by hardware engineers and designers to simulate and debug digital circuits and systems before implementation on physical hardware such as FPGAs or ASICs. It can be used to verify the correctness of the digital design by running test benches and checking the simulation results.
