这是我的版本。它不使用for循环。它具有常数复杂度O(1)，理论上比这里使用for循环的答案更有效。

from math import log
unit_list = zip(['bytes', 'kB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB'], [0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 2])
def sizeof_fmt(num):
    """Human friendly file size"""
    if num > 1:
        exponent = min(int(log(num, 1024)), len(unit_list) - 1)
        quotient = float(num) / 1024**exponent
        unit, num_decimals = unit_list[exponent]
        format_string = '{:.%sf} {}' % (num_decimals)
        return format_string.format(quotient, unit)
    if num == 0:
        return '0 bytes'
    if num == 1:
        return '1 byte'

为了更清楚地说明发生了什么，我们可以省略字符串格式化的代码。以下是真正起作用的台词:

exponent = int(log(num, 1024))
quotient = num / 1024**exponent
unit_list[exponent]

为了以人类可读的形式获取文件大小，我创建了这个函数:

import os

def get_size(path):
    size = os.path.getsize(path)
    if size < 1024:
        return f"{size} bytes"
    elif size < pow(1024,2):
        return f"{round(size/1024, 2)} KB"
    elif size < pow(1024,3):
        return f"{round(size/(pow(1024,2)), 2)} MB"
    elif size < pow(1024,4):
        return f"{round(size/(pow(1024,3)), 2)} GB"

>>> get_size("a.txt")
1.4KB

根据之前所有的答案，以下是我的看法。它是一个以字节为单位以整数形式存储文件大小的对象。但是当你尝试打印对象时，你会自动得到一个人类可读的版本。

class Filesize(object):
    """
    Container for a size in bytes with a human readable representation
    Use it like this::

        >>> size = Filesize(123123123)
        >>> print size
        '117.4 MB'
    """

    chunk = 1024
    units = ['bytes', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB']
    precisions = [0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 2]

    def __init__(self, size):
        self.size = size

    def __int__(self):
        return self.size

    def __str__(self):
        if self.size == 0: return '0 bytes'
        from math import log
        unit = self.units[min(int(log(self.size, self.chunk)), len(self.units) - 1)]
        return self.format(unit)

    def format(self, unit):
        if unit not in self.units: raise Exception("Not a valid file size unit: %s" % unit)
        if self.size == 1 and unit == 'bytes': return '1 byte'
        exponent = self.units.index(unit)
        quotient = float(self.size) / self.chunk**exponent
        precision = self.precisions[exponent]
        format_string = '{:.%sf} {}' % (precision)
        return format_string.format(quotient, unit)

def human_readable_data_quantity(quantity, multiple=1024):
    if quantity == 0:
        quantity = +0
    SUFFIXES = ["B"] + [i + {1000: "B", 1024: "iB"}[multiple] for i in "KMGTPEZY"]
    for suffix in SUFFIXES:
        if quantity < multiple or suffix == SUFFIXES[-1]:
            if suffix == SUFFIXES[0]:
                return "%d%s" % (quantity, suffix)
            else:
                return "%.1f%s" % (quantity, suffix)
        else:
            quantity /= multiple

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/

该功能在Boltons中可用，这对于大多数项目来说都是一个非常方便的库。

>>> bytes2human(128991)
'126K'
>>> bytes2human(100001221)
'95M'
>>> bytes2human(0, 2)
'0.00B'
