Batch - Create Folders with one changing variable

Question

So I want to create lots of different folders (lots!) which will have the following format:

RobocopyVAR          -  where VAR will be a letter, or number etc.

Just for learning purposes, how could I create a basic batch file to automate creating folders:

RobocopyA       through to           RobocopyZ

Cheers!

Put this into a batch file:

for %%L in (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U,V,W,X,Y,Z) DO (md Robocopy%%L)

Similar. You basically just need start and end

Ah sorry, I read bash not batch. Let me correct my response

Corrected it. Place the code into a file e.g. makeDir.bat and run it.
