Hardware Description Language

A language to describe circuits, the base of computer hardware, etc.

Speaking of a HDL usually assumes that digital circuits are described,
but there are languages for the description of analog circuits too.

Examples of such languages are [[Verilog-HDL]], [[VHDL]],
[Niklaus Wirth]'s LoLa, or the [Perl] module [[Perl::HDL]].
