Good stuff! However im dealing with a PIC16F84A and the instructions on the link above are different. Thanks though i can actually use the examples they have to get a better idea as to how the logic works.
??? those ARE instructions the 16F84A understands. MPLAB creates aliases for the 'skp' instructions, they are mentioned in the MPLAB help files and earlier in the web link.
Trick: if you know the RESULT is going to fit in 8 bits (no greater than 255), you can do it in fewer instructions:
1. enter with the value in W.
2. copy W to a memory location.
3. shift it to the left (now holds 2 * value)
4. shift it to the left (now holds 4 * value)
5. add W to the memory location.
Depending on whether you set W or the memory as the destination, it now holds (value + (value * 4)) = value * 5.
