Rename files in a directory

Dear Experts, I have 50 csv files and want to rename them. The current names are 10.csv, 20.csv, ...700.csv and want to rename them to data1.csv, data2.csv,...data70.csv. They are all in matlab directory. Can you please help me :)

Another possible solution:

f = dir('*.csv');

for kk = 1:numel(f)
  fileFrom = f(kk).name;
  fileTo = ['data',erase(f(kk).name,'0.csv'),'.csv'];
  movefile(fileFrom,fileTo);
end

Adapting the example from the documentation of using that contribution:

D = 'C:\Test';
S = dir(fullfile(D,'*.csv'));
N = natsortfiles({S.name});
for k = 1:numel(N)
  sourcefile = fullfile(D, N{k});
  destfile = fullfile(D, sprintf('data%d.csv', k));
  movefile(sourcefile, destfile);
end
