How can convert MB to KB in PHP?

php $units = explode(' ','B KB MB GB TB PB'); echo("<html><body>"); echo('file size: ' . format_size(filesize("example. txt"))); echo("</body></html>"); function format_size($size) { $mod = 1024; for ($i = 0; $size > $mod; $i++) { $size /= $mod; } $endIndex = strpos($size, ".")+3; return substr( $size, 0, $endIndex).

Is 10 kb bigger than 2mb?

Yes, Kilobytes are smaller than Megabytes. Kilobytes are 1024 times smaller in size.

How do I convert MB to KB?

How to convert MegaBytes to KiloBytes. Converting from MB to KB is easy to do: multiply by 1024 under the binary system; multiply by 1000 under the SI system, or move the decimal dot three positions to the right.


Here is a sample:

<?php
// Snippet from PHP Share: http://www.phpshare.org

    function formatSizeUnits($bytes)
    {
        if ($bytes >= 1073741824)
        {
            $bytes = number_format($bytes / 1073741824, 2) . ' GB';
        }
        elseif ($bytes >= 1048576)
        {
            $bytes = number_format($bytes / 1048576, 2) . ' MB';
        }
        elseif ($bytes >= 1024)
        {
            $bytes = number_format($bytes / 1024, 2) . ' KB';
        }
        elseif ($bytes > 1)
        {
            $bytes = $bytes . ' bytes';
        }
        elseif ($bytes == 1)
        {
            $bytes = $bytes . ' byte';
        }
        else
        {
            $bytes = '0 bytes';
        }

        return $bytes;
}
?>

Even nicer is this version I created from a plugin I found:

function filesize_formatted($path)
{
    $size = filesize($path);
    $units = array( 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB');
    $power = $size > 0 ? floor(log($size, 1024)) : 0;
    return number_format($size / pow(1024, $power), 2, '.', ',') . ' ' . $units[$power];
}

Note from filesize() doc

Because PHP's integer type is signed and many platforms use 32bit integers, some filesystem functions may return unexpected results for files which are larger than 2GB


A cleaner approach:

function Size($path)
{
    $bytes = sprintf('%u', filesize($path));

    if ($bytes > 0)
    {
        $unit = intval(log($bytes, 1024));
        $units = array('B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB');

        if (array_key_exists($unit, $units) === true)
        {
            return sprintf('%d %s', $bytes / pow(1024, $unit), $units[$unit]);
        }
    }

    return $bytes;
}

I think this is a better approach. Simple and straight forward.

public function sizeFilter( $bytes )
{
    $label = array( 'B', 'KB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB', 'PB' );
    for( $i = 0; $bytes >= 1024 && $i < ( count( $label ) -1 ); $bytes /= 1024, $i++ );
    return( round( $bytes, 2 ) . " " . $label[$i] );
}
