Counting

I have been doing a lot of surfing trying to figure out the best and cheapest way to do this. I don't want to use a multiplexing IC. I am wiring the displays directly to pins in the MEGA. I am not sure how to get the display to read 00 then count up from there. I am thinking that I will have to use a line that increments the count. count(i=0, i<9, ++i) I have no idea how to write an array that will allow the count to continue or how to get the system to go beyone 9. I am really good with wiring, I just don't have enough programming background to accomplish much.
