Hey all, I'm new to Arduino and coding in general and could use some help.
I'm using an Arduino with a Adafruit VS1053, I currently have 4 sound files on the micro SD just named with a number "1" or "2" (will eventually have around 20 files), however the VS1053 seems to load the files with ".MP3" on the end of it so the code doesn't work since it's just outputting the number alone (created from a random number generator here:
itoa(random(MIN_NUMBER,MAX_NUMBER),myFile,10);
I have tried just adding the ".MP3" part onto the end of it like this:
musicPlayer.playFullFile(myFile) + ".MP3";
Which didn't end up working, I also tried adding it here:
itoa(random(MIN_NUMBER,MAX_NUMBER),myFile + ".MP3",10);
Which just gives the following error:
invalid operands of types 'char [3]' and 'const char [5]' to binary 'operator+'
I'm a little lost how I can correctly add the ".MP3" to the end of the randomly generated number so that it can play the audio correctly using the musicPlayer.playFullFile.
I know this is probably quite a basic question and I apologize for that, but after multiple attempts to fix it on my own I'm running out of ideas. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it a lot! 
If you need any more information, just ask!
