Answer 1

Hello!

Can you please provide a little more information about the files that you're renaming?

If this is your current directory contents,

a.txt

b.txt

c.txt

do we care which one ends up as 1.txt or 2.txt? Or are we just looking to read every file in the directory and rename each one regardless of the file until we have numerical names?

Thanks,

Paul
