Hi , Can you help me to write the vhdl file for next delivery?

Design and implement a circuit that successively flashes digits from 0 
to 9 on the 7-segment display HEX0. Each digit should be displayed for 
about one second. Use a counter to determine the one-second interval. 
The counter should be incremented by the 50 MHz clock signal provided on 
the DE2 board (CLOCK_50 input signal, to be managed as a clock input 
coming from the external world). Do not derive any other clock signals 
in your design; make sure that all the flipflops in your circuit are 
clocked directly by the 50 MHz clock signal.

Why not implementing the 4 bit counter simplay as a counter from 0 to 9 
in the flashing_LIGHTS entity?

If you must use those 2 components counter_4bit and segment_7_decoder, 
then you will have to rip out the corresponding lines of code and put 
them in their own entities...

This requirement is not satisfied:

Because the 25 Bit counter a is counting only 2**25 = 33554432 cycles 
and therefore the display time is only 670ms per digit.
