Expert Answer
Since an aldehyde carbonyl group must always lie at the end of a carbon chain, it is by default position #1, and therefore defines the numbering direction and this number is not included in the name.
Aldehydes take their name from their parent alkane chains. The -e is removed from the end and is replaced with -al.
So, the IUPAC name of C3H7CHO is butanal.
All the carbon atoms are included in the naming and numbering.
