word = 65536
It's possible to count up to 65536 numbers (range from 0 - 65535) if you use a word. A word is 16 bits so you get up to 2^16 numbers.
Technically all you need are 11 bits, that will get you 2048 numbers. If you're hurting for space you can use a byte and a nibble and do some creative incrementing.
If you want to know more just say so, a lot of people here can help.
