+/*
+*This example code is written by AFASSI Mohamed
+*
+*It uses the Dirent library to search for files with specific extension in a directory
+*In this example I just print out the files found but instead you could manipulate them.
+*For i.e. I used this script in a project to find csv files and format them into Binary files
+*
+*
+* Compile this file with Visual Studio and run the produced command in
+* console with an extension name and directory name argument.
