-1

I want to make the following directories using shell script,

00, 01, 02, ..., 50

I have tried the script as follows:

for ((1;i<=${1};i=i+1))
do
mkdir ${i}
done

But I get 

0, 1, 2, ..., 50

How to modify the script? thanks.

    printf(1) will help get the number into the appropriate format. – Shawn Aug 14 '18 at 01:53

for i in $(seq -f "%05g" 0 50)
do
  mkdir $i
done

should do the trick.
