Which looks something like this...

Start:
     bsf    STATUS,RP0    ; Select Registers at Bank 1

     clrf   TRISIO        ; Set all General Purpose I/O to output
     clrf   ANSEL         ; Make all ports as digital I/O

Twenty-one. My father-in-law gave me a Timex Sinclair 1000 for my birthday. BASIC was built in to the Timex.
