1. Atoms and Sequences

Hello all! Trying to output numerical filenames. eg:

x=x+1
filename="DATA."&x
fn=open(filename,"w")

How can I get the NUMERAL INTEGER to a filename with that extension?
I keep getting characters instead of the number I want.

Thanks for any help ...

this should do what you want:

  filename = "DATA."&sprintf("%03d",{x})

It sure does! Thanks, Jacques! Three days of trying, no luck...10 seconds
to write that message and I'm in business!
