VHDL Code for 4-Bit Magnitude Comparator

Given below code is about 4-bit Magnitude comparator. First code is written using structural method and second code is written using behavioral method. This module has two 4-bit inputs 'a' and 'b' and three single bit output 'ag', bg' and 'eq'. In this code if 'a' is greater than 'b' then 'ag' will go high and rest will be low. Same way if 'b' is grater than 'a' then 'bg' will go high and rest will go low. If 'a' and 'b' are equal then 'eq' will go high and rest will go low. Find out Test Bench here.
