{{Useful Function}}
This function lets you transform a number of bytes into a human readable unit.

==Syntax==
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
string byte2human ( int bytes )
</syntaxhighlight>

===Required Arguments===
*'''bytes:''' The value which you want to get the human readable version.

===Returns===
Returns a string which shows the number transformed into a human-friendly string.

==Code==
<section name="Server/Client-Side Script" class="both" show="true">
<syntaxhighlight lang="lua">
function byte2human(bytes, si)
local threshold = si and 1000 or 1024
if (math.abs(bytes) < threshold) then
return bytes .. " B"
end
local units =
si and {"kB", "MB", "GB", "TB", "PB", "EB", "ZB", "YB"}
or {"KiB", "MiB", "GiB", "TiB", "PiB", "EiB", "ZiB", "YiB"}
local unitIndex = 0
repeat
bytes = bytes / threshold
unitIndex = unitIndex + 1
until not (math.abs(bytes) >= threshold and unitIndex < #units)
return math.simpleround(bytes, 2) .. " " .. units[unitIndex]
end
</syntaxhighlight>
