How do I use a variable in the command executed in a system subroutine call? For example, if I want to create multiple directories like test_1_1, test_1_2, and so on till test_3_3 then what should my code be?
I am trying the following code but can't seem to figure out what to write in #### part.
integer :: i,j
do i = 1,3
do j = 1,3
CALL system('mkdir folder ####')
enddo
enddo
character (len=8) :: test_name
do i=1, 3
do j=1, 3
write (test_name, '( "test_", I1, "_", I1 )' ) i, j
call system ( "mkdir " // test_name )
end do
end do
The format in my example will work as long as the numbers are single digits. If you want larger values you could use I2.2 (for up to two digits, with leading zero, if single digits), or I0, for whatever number of digits are needed.
