changing the name of exported file without typing

Hello,

I want to export f[i], where i=0,1,2, into separate files, with respective file names, like f0.dat, f1.dat, f2.dat.  But I do not want to have to type 

Export["f0.dat",f[0]];
Export["f1.dat",f[1]];
Export["f2.dat",f[2]];

I tried to save energy by using the Do loop 

Do[Export[Print["f",r,".dat"],f[r]],{r,0,2}]

but it does not work, saying that the format cannot be recognised from the printed string.  Does anyone know how to loop over the file names?  Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Jack Yu
