remember log division from schoool, now try that in base 2!
Yes. And then develop a hardware design that can do that...
When this is done, it's a small step to describe it in VHDL.

Sorry I meant LONG division not LOG

For a few seconds I considered that you meant subtracting logs to do division. But then I figured it out. I don't think subtracting logs and then antilog is likely to be a very good way in FPGA.
