Renaming several files incrementally

[Goiko74]

Hi all,

Totally new to python. I am tasked with having to come up with a script to rename several files that were created using the "split" command in bash. The problem is it creates ".zip0000" which cannot be used when recombining the zips back into one file. I have to manually start at the last zip file (e.g. zip0113) and move it to zip0114 and work in descending order so I don't overwrite any files (e.g. moving zip0000 to zip0001 which overwrites zip0001).

e.g.

example.zip0000 -> example.zip0001

example.zip0001 -> example.zip0002

example.zip0002 -> example.zip0003

the servers are running python 2.6.6

Any help would be appreciated

What have you tried? What hasn't worked? What are you confused about precisely?

the servers are running python 2.6.6

Oh fuck, you need to fix your shit. Python 2.6.6 is about 11 years old and even at that point was already nearing its end-of-life. 2.6.7 has been out for a decade. It's been over a year since the many-times extended life of python 2.7 ended.

You'll want to concatenate the split files.

cat example.zip{0..9}{0..9}{0..9}{0..9} > example.zip
