C is a programming language that described a series of procedural
instructions to be run one after the other on a CPU.
VHDL is a Hardware description language (ie. Very high speed
integrated circuit Hardware Description Language) and is therefor NOT
a programming language. You could not use it to create a program to
run on any CPU. It describes concurrent digital logic.
They are two very different things. In theory, for example, you could
use VHDL to describe a CPU, then use C to run a program on the
processor you have described in VHDL.
