Batch Script for Consolidating Java Files

This repository contains a batch script to automate the process of consolidating multiple Java files into a single output text file. The script processes files named in the format task##.java (where ## is a number between 01 and 99) and merges their content into a well-organized text file.

---

Features

• Automatically processes all task##.java files in the directory.
• Creates an output file named Assignment_<AssignmentNumber>_<UserID>_<UserName>.txt.
• Validates the format of input files to ensure only correctly named files are included.
• Provides helpful prompts for user inputs.

How to Use

1. Prepare Your Files:

   • Ensure all Java files follow the naming convention task##.java (e.g., task01.java, task23.java).
   • Place this script in the same directory as the Java files.

2. Run the Script:

   • Open a Command Prompt (Windows).
   • Navigate to the directory containing this script and the Java files.
   • Execute the script by typing:

     CSE110submissionFormatScript.bat

3. Provide User Input:

   • Follow the prompts to enter:
     • Assignment Number (e.g., 01)
     • User ID
     • Your Name

4. Check Output:

   • The consolidated file will be generated with a name like:

     Assignment <AssignmentNumber>_<UserID>_<UserName>.txt

Example

Given the following Java files in the directory:

• task01.java
• task02.java
• task03.java

When you run the script and provide the following inputs:

• Assignment Number: 03
• User ID: 24301222
• User Name: Gabe Newell

The output will be: Assignment 03_24301222_Gabe Newell.txt
