你应该用humanize。

>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000)
'1.0 MB'
>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000, binary=True)
'976.6 KiB'
>>> humanize.naturalsize(1000000, gnu=True)
'976.6K'

参考: https://pypi.org/project/humanize/

重复作为匆匆.filesize()替代方案提供的代码段，下面的代码段根据所使用的前缀给出不同的精度数字。它不像某些片段那样简洁，但我喜欢这样的结果。

def human_size(size_bytes):
    """
    format a size in bytes into a 'human' file size, e.g. bytes, KB, MB, GB, TB, PB
    Note that bytes/KB will be reported in whole numbers but MB and above will have greater precision
    e.g. 1 byte, 43 bytes, 443 KB, 4.3 MB, 4.43 GB, etc
    """
    if size_bytes == 1:
        # because I really hate unnecessary plurals
        return "1 byte"

    suffixes_table = [('bytes',0),('KB',0),('MB',1),('GB',2),('TB',2), ('PB',2)]

    num = float(size_bytes)
    for suffix, precision in suffixes_table:
        if num < 1024.0:
            break
        num /= 1024.0

    if precision == 0:
        formatted_size = "%d" % num
    else:
        formatted_size = str(round(num, ndigits=precision))

    return "%s %s" % (formatted_size, suffix)

这个解决方案可能也会吸引你，这取决于你的思维方式:

from pathlib import Path    

def get_size(path = Path('.')):
    """ Gets file size, or total directory size """
    if path.is_file():
        size = path.stat().st_size
    elif path.is_dir():
        size = sum(file.stat().st_size for file in path.glob('*.*'))
    return size

def format_size(path, unit="MB"):
    """ Converts integers to common size units used in computing """
    bit_shift = {"B": 0,
            "kb": 7,
            "KB": 10,
            "mb": 17,
            "MB": 20,
            "gb": 27,
            "GB": 30,
            "TB": 40,}
    return "{:,.0f}".format(get_size(path) / float(1 << bit_shift[unit])) + " " + unit

# Tests and test results
>>> get_size("d:\\media\\bags of fun.avi")
'38 MB'
>>> get_size("d:\\media\\bags of fun.avi","KB")
'38,763 KB'
>>> get_size("d:\\media\\bags of fun.avi","kb")
'310,104 kb'

以下工作在Python 3.6+中，在我看来，是这里最容易理解的答案，并允许您自定义使用的小数位数。

def human_readable_size(size, decimal_places=2):
    for unit in ['B', 'KiB', 'MiB', 'GiB', 'TiB', 'PiB']:
        if size < 1024.0 or unit == 'PiB':
            break
        size /= 1024.0
    return f"{size:.{decimal_places}f} {unit}"

我喜欢senderle的十进制版本的固定精度，所以这里有一种与上面joctee的答案的混合(你知道你可以取非整数底数的对数吗?):

from math import log
def human_readable_bytes(x):
    # hybrid of https://stackoverflow.com/a/10171475/2595465
    #      with https://stackoverflow.com/a/5414105/2595465
    if x == 0: return '0'
    magnitude = int(log(abs(x),10.24))
    if magnitude > 16:
        format_str = '%iP'
        denominator_mag = 15
    else:
        float_fmt = '%2.1f' if magnitude % 3 == 1 else '%1.2f'
        illion = (magnitude + 1) // 3
        format_str = float_fmt + ['', 'K', 'M', 'G', 'T', 'P'][illion]
    return (format_str % (x * 1.0 / (1024 ** illion))).lstrip('0')

您将在下面发现的决不是已经发布的解决方案中性能最好或最短的解决方案。相反，它专注于一个许多其他答案都忽略的特定问题。

即输入如999_995时的情况:

Python 3.6.1 ...
...
>>> value = 999_995
>>> base = 1000
>>> math.log(value, base)
1.999999276174054

哪个，被截断为最近的整数，并应用回输入给出

>>> order = int(math.log(value, base))
>>> value/base**order
999.995

这似乎正是我们所期望的，直到我们被要求控制输出精度。这就是事情开始变得有点困难的时候。

将精度设置为2位，我们得到:

>>> round(value/base**order, 2)
1000 # K

而不是1M。

我们该如何应对呢?

当然，我们可以显式地检查它:

if round(value/base**order, 2) == base:
    order += 1

但我们能做得更好吗?在我们做最后一步之前，我们能知道订单应该怎么削减吗?

事实证明我们可以。

假设0.5十进制舍入规则，则上述if条件转化为:

导致

def abbreviate(value, base=1000, precision=2, suffixes=None):
    if suffixes is None:
        suffixes = ['', 'K', 'M', 'B', 'T']

    if value == 0:
        return f'{0}{suffixes[0]}'

    order_max = len(suffixes) - 1
    order = log(abs(value), base)
    order_corr = order - int(order) >= log(base - 0.5/10**precision, base)
    order = min(int(order) + order_corr, order_max)

    factored = round(value/base**order, precision)

    return f'{factored:,g}{suffixes[order]}'

给

>>> abbreviate(999_994)
'999.99K'
>>> abbreviate(999_995)
'1M'
>>> abbreviate(999_995, precision=3)
'999.995K'
>>> abbreviate(2042, base=1024)
'1.99K'
>>> abbreviate(2043, base=1024)
'2K'
