I'm trying to use the PIC16F84 microchip MCU but its 35 instruction word limits me in

I simulated the program michael put on and found it to work well.

And it only used about 12 different instructions - so how can 35 be a limitation?!

So i've changed my thinking to the 8052 MCU as it's more powerful

You do not need a powerful processor just to do a 6-digit counter!!

This is definitely a case where you need to work smarter (think how to use those 35 instructions) rather than harder (get a bigger processor)!
