⬆️ Upgrading The Code

In order to upgrade the code, first you need to rename the file from 0001quine.py to [how many numbers you want]quine.py, for example: 0000001quine.py. Then go to the code file and change the numbers "4" from 10th and 14th line to The sum of the numbers you entered in the previous step, for example 000001, is 6.

🍫 Example

Main 10th & 14th Lines:

10      number = num[:4]  # Get the first four characters of the filename
11      ...
12      ...
13      ...
14      new_number = str(int(number) + 1).zfill(4)  # Increment and ensure it's 4 digits (e.g., '0002' from '0001')

Updated Version 10th & 14th Lines:

10      number = num[:6]  # Get the first sixth characters of the filename
11      ...
12      ...
13      ...
14      new_number = str(int(number) + 1).zfill(6)  # Increment and ensure it's 6 digits (e.g., '000002' from '000001')
