divide into sgments

i am a newbie to VHDL.i have the following code which i need to submit in 2 days time as an assignment and i want to divide it into 4-bit segments.pls wud someone help me out?


LIBRARY ieee;
USE ieee.std_logic_1164.ALL;

ENTITY c_l_addr IS
PORT
(
x_in : IN STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
y_in : IN STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
carry_in : IN STD_LOGIC;
sum : OUT STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
carry_out : OUT STD_LOGIC
);
END c_l_addr;

ARCHITECTURE behavioral OF c_l_addr IS

SIGNAL h_sum : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
SIGNAL carry_generate : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
SIGNAL carry_propagate : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 0);
SIGNAL carry_in_internal : STD_LOGIC_VECTOR(7 DOWNTO 1);

BEGIN
h_sum <= x_in XOR y_in;
carry_generate <= x_in AND y_in;
carry_propagate <= x_in OR y_in;
PROCESS (carry_generate,carry_propagate,carry_in_internal)
BEGIN
carry_in_internal(1) <= carry_generate(0) OR (carry_propagate(0) AND carry_in);
inst: FOR i IN 1 TO 6 LOOP
carry_in_internal(i+1) <= carry_generate(i) OR (carry_propagate(i) AND carry_in_internal(i));
END LOOP;
carry_out <= carry_generate(7) OR (carry_propagate(7) AND carry_in_internal(7));
END PROCESS;

sum(0) <= h_sum(0) XOR carry_in;
sum(7 DOWNTO 1) <= h_sum(7 DOWNTO 1) XOR carry_in_internal(7 DOWNTO 1);
END behavioral;

lol sry ...two 4-bit segments.sry
