从字节大小返回人类可读大小的函数:

>>> human_readable(2048)
'2 kilobytes'
>>>

如何做到这一点?

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]

使用1000或kibibytes的幂将更符合标准:

def sizeof_fmt(num, use_kibibyte=True):
    base, suffix = [(1000.,'B'),(1024.,'iB')][use_kibibyte]
    for x in ['B'] + map(lambda x: x+suffix, list('kMGTP')):
        if -base < num < base:
            return "%3.1f %s" % (num, x)
        num /= base
    return "%3.1f %s" % (num, x)

附注:永远不要相信一个以K(大写)后缀打印数千的库。

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'

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')

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}"

“人类友好”项目有助于解决这一问题。

import humanfriendly
humanfriendly.format_size(1024)
