i am using PIC16f676 Microcontroller for programming and its datasheet shows me that it has only 64 bytes ram for use.

While i declare an array of byte 100 in size, it shows me an error that couldn't find space to allocate that variable as the ram memory becomes full.

What should i do to save ram memory and can declare 100 byte array variable?
 

Post your code, using either CODE or SYNTAX tags, along with a detailed description of the required task.

Specifically, what is the purpose of the 100 byte array.

You need to select a uC which has >> 100 bytes of RAM.

for that (as BIGDOGURU says) we need more info on what you're doing.

The short answer is, you can't ( have more than 64byte.) You need to select a microcontroller with more RAM, or declare a shorter array. I suppose you need more variables than the one array, so the array need to be smaller still.
