Verb Complement: 了 (le) vs. 完 (wán)
Both attach to the end of a verb, but they answer different questions.
了 (le) — "Did it happen?"
了 marks that an action occurred. It doesn't say anything about whether you finished it.
我吃了饭 Wǒ chīle fàn I ate (some) food. / I had a meal.
我看了那本书 Wǒ kànle nà běn shū I read that book. (Started it, read some of it — doesn't mean you finished.)
我写了作业 Wǒ xiěle zuòyè I did (some of) my homework.
完 (wán) — "Did you finish ALL of it?"
完 is a result complement meaning "to completion." It implies nothing was left undone — you saw it through to the end.
我吃完了饭 Wǒ chī wánle fàn I finished eating. (The plate is clean.)
我看完了那本书 Wǒ kàn wánle nà běn shū I finished reading that book. (Cover to cover.)
我写完了作业 Wǒ xiě wánle zuòyè I finished all my homework.

- 了 → the action took place
- 完 → the action reached its natural end point, nothing left over
