Now you have to put all of your .CSV files into a folder and run the above script.

In the above picture as you can see that i am putting my all .CSV file into the  folder name "files" and this folder are on Desktop. So now i am running the below command from command prompt -

 You can see that i have copying the above script and save it on Desktop with the name fileConverter.php. Then i go to the Desktop location and run the above command that you seeing in the screen shot.
