<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578321 by <a href="/recipes/users/4184150/">Tony Flury</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/formatting/">formatting</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/memory/">memory</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/size/">size</a>). Revision 5. </p> <p>In writing a application to display the file sizes of set of files, I wanted to provide a human readable size rather then just displaying a byte count (which can get rather big).</p> <p>I developed this useful short recipe that extends the format specifier mini Language to add the S presentation type - which will intelligently convert the value to be displayed into a known human readable size format - i.e. b, Kb,Mb, Gb etc. It honours the rest of the format specification language (<a href="http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#format-string-syntax%29" rel="nofollow">http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#format-string-syntax)</a></p> <p>It uses a factor of 1024 at each stage</p>

Revision 4. </p> <p>This may not be useful to many people, but this is a very simple finite state machine. It is defined as a class so that you can have multiple state machines running at the same time - all with different state/transition lists.</p>
