When I execute the program in console I just do this:
./c1 2500 textfile.txt
and it just print a integer. The thing here is that I want to introduce 1000 textfiles as input so I made this script:
c=1 while [ $c -le 1000 ] do ./c1 2500 >> sal.txt $c.txt (( c++ )) done
The trouble here is that the script is not putting the output in the file text because is not iterating as it should, I think the problem is when the name of the filetext is introduced as $c.txt, how can i solve this? Thanks for reading

$c.txt is not a command and the bash interpreter can’t understand what that means
if you want to create a file, use touch [file]
or you want to copy a existing file to the destination, use cp [src_file] [dst_file]
so the code may like this:
./c1 2500 > $c.txt
or you may want to append the result to a file:
./c1 2500 > $c.txt cat $c.txt >> sal.txt
ps:

and >>
both of these operators represent output redirection

writes the output to the file

appends the output to the file
cat
concatenates files and print on the standard output
