Hi

made a counter that count till 1 000 000 000.How long will it take to get there when there is no delay.

That depends - how have you programmed your counter, what do you do with the result, what computer are you using, what other processes are running?

Rather than asking people who do not know all these things, you'd better try it out yourself: Let it count to 10 000 000, and multiply that result by 100. It will not be exact, but it will be a much better estimate than I or anyone else here can provide.
