Quick python script to change all file names of an extension - Lukos1234 - Aug 24, 2017
import os
import random
os.getcwd()
extension = input("What's the extension of the file names you want to change ? \nexample : .mp4 or .jpg \n")
for f in os.listdir():
fname , fext = os.path.splitext(f)
if fext==extension:
fname = str(random.randint(1,100000000))
newname= "{}{}".format(fname,fext)
os.rename(f,newname)
just learning guys 😁

Use "php" or "code" tags to preserve indentation when posting code.
PHP Code
<?php
import os
import random
os.getcwd()
extension = input("What's the extension of the file names you want to change ? \nexample : .mp4 or .jpg \n")
for f in os.listdir():
fname , fext = os.path.splitext(f)
if fext==extension:
fname = str(random.randint(1,100000000))
newname= "{}{}".format(fname,fext)
os.rename(f,newname)

Because sod readability
PHP Code
<?php
#!/urs/bin/python3
import os
import random
extension = input("What's the extension of the file names you want to change ? \nexample : .mp4 or .jpg \n")
[os.rename(f,str(random.randint(1,10**6))+os.path.splitext(f)[1]) for f in os.listdir() if os.path.splitext(f)[1] == extension]

I heard renaming files or removing their extension is a good ransomware.
Either way the script would be open for anyone to see.

This isn't good practice. The beauty of Python is in its readability, one liners are nice and all, but this isn't a good way to do things.

@Lukos123:
If you are interested in renaming files to random strings instead of numbers, you may use module 'strgen'
To generate 12 letter random string:
Code
import strgen
strgen.StringGenerator('[\1]{12}').render()* - NoAimNoGame - Aug 28, 2017
Nice Code man.
PHP Code
<?php
import os
Kys = input("What do you want to do? : ")
if Kys == 'kys':
os.system('KYS!')
print('No such command but you killed yourself anyway')
