Blocking and non blocking statements

Blocking Statements: 

A blocking statement must be executed before the execution of the statements that follow it in a sequential block. 

Nonblocking Statements: 

Nonblocking statements allow you to schedule assignments without blocking the procedural flow. You can use the nonblocking procedural statement whenever you want to make several register assignments within the same time step without regard to order or dependence upon each other. It means that nonblocking statements resemble actual hardware more than blocking assignments.

module block_nonblock();

reg a, b, c, d , e, f ;

// Blocking assignments
initial begin
a = #10 1'b1;// The simulator assigns 1 to a at time 10
b = #20 1'b0;// The simulator assigns 0 to b at time 30
c = #40 1'b1;// The simulator assigns 1 to c at time 70
end
 
// Nonblocking assignments
initial begin
      d <=  #10  1'b1;// The simulator assigns 1 to d at time 10
      e <=  #20  1'b0;// The simulator assigns 0 to e at time 20
      f  <=  #40  1'b1;// The simulator assigns 1 to f at time 40
 end
