How to batch create a range of folders (000-999) in windows?
for /l %i in (0,1,9) do md 00%i
for /l %i in (10,1,99) do md 0%i
for /l %i in (100,1,999) do md %i
Explanation from the documentation (i.e. type for /?
at the command prompt):
Runs a specified command for each file in a set of files.
FOR %variable IN (set) DO command [command-parameters]
%variable Specifies a single letter replaceable parameter.
(set) Specifies a set of one or more files. Wildcards may be used.
command Specifies the command to carry out for each file.
command-parameters
Specifies parameters or switches for the specified command.
...
FOR /L %variable IN (start,step,end) DO command [command-parameters]
The set is a sequence of numbers from start to end, by step amount.
So (1,1,5) would generate the sequence 1 2 3 4 5 and (5,-1,1) would
generate the sequence (5 4 3 2 1)
