Hello, I’m trying to clone an object a certain number of times. I want to rename it to I (the number). How do I do that?
Current code:

local val = 0
local user = game.ReplicatedStorage["username"].Value
while wait() do
	val = game.Players[user].PartCount.Value
	for i = 1,val+1 do
		game.Workspace.SamplePart:Clone()
		
		
	end
end

Thanks in the meantime!

You can achive this via concatenation or string formatting. I will give the example

--First Way (concatenation)
for i = 0,10,1 do --looping for 10 times
    local NewPart = Instance.new("Part") 
    local Name = "Part".. i 
   --more stuff here
    local Parent = workspace --Parent it to the workspace

--Second Way (string formatting)
for i = 0,10,1 do 
    local NewPart = Instance.new("Part")
    local Name = string.format("PartName %s",i)
   --more stuff here (i use same code to demonstrate)
    local Parent = workspace

If you dont really understand string manipulation, go here or go here for string in general
