Is there a way in Java to create a file and rename it if that file already exists, e.g. “Dog.jpg”, to something like that “Dog(1).jpg” and so on (“Dog(2).jpg” if “Dog(1).jpg” exists too, etc.)?

Fileclass in java has a method calledexistsuse that to check if the file exists or notIf it does exist rename it to something else.
Repeat this process until you find a file name that does not exsist
