File Size using Binary Prefixes

By tye on Sep 02, 2004

Returns the size of a file using binary prefixes when given the file size in bytes.

<?php
// fs(size) returns formatted file size string
function fs($fs) {
     $sizes = array('B','KiB','MiB','GiB','TiB');

     $ex = substr(floor(log($fs)/log(2)),0,-1);
     $v = round($fs / pow(2,$ex * 10),2);

     return $v . $sizes[($ex ? $ex : 0)];
}
?>

yes

$file = 'yourfile.txt';
echo count(file($file));

or

$file = file('yourfile.txt');
echo count($file);

or

echo count(file('youfile.txt'));

Is there a function that returns the number of lines in a text file?

It needs floor() to get a whole number from the division. afiak PHP has no operator to do this so I used floor().

you don\'t need to use floor. It Returns the lowest integer value.
