Getting multiple notepad out put files

Question

hello
i'm trying to make a java program that writes out multiple files to a folder in my documents. However, i'm confused on how to make a for statement that would output a lot of files, while making them still write and not have to replace the previous one.......
this is my program
import java.io.*;
public class notePad{
public static void main(String args[]){
try{
File infile = new File("C:/Documents and Settings/c1s5/My Documents/Allah/sample.txt");
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(infile);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(fos);
out.println("This is the sample text in the notepad");
out.flush();
out.close();
}catch(Exception e){}
and i want to be able to manipulate the sample so that it goes sample 1...sample 2..for every time it runs though the for statement....also, i want to make it output more than one file....anyone have an idea how i can do this...its my fourth month in java...so i'm a noob
hwrd

Answer 1

import java.io.*;
public class notePad{
  public static void main(String args[]){
    try{
      for(int i=0; i<how many file; i++)
        File infile = new File("C:/Documents and
        Settings/c1s5/My Documents/Allah/sample.txt" + i);
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(infile);
        PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(fos);
        out.println("This is the sample text in the
        notepad");
        out.flush();
        out.close();
    }catch(Exception e){}
Change the file name for each one. as long as you use the same hard coded file name it will overwrite the previous one. The example is hideous and very rought but should give you the idea.
Hope this helps,
