See for example http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/prefixes.html and http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/prefixes.html#binary Do not confuse binary prefixes with Metric prefixes eg metric prefixes <http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/prefixes.html> tera- (T-) 1012 1 trillion giga- (G-) 109 1 billion mega- (M-) 106 1 million kilo- (k-) 103 1 thousand and binary prefixes <http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/binary.html> kibi- Ki- 210 = 1 024 mebi- Mi- 220 = 1 048 576 gibi- Gi- 230 = 1 073 741 824 tebi- Ti- 240 = 1 099 511 627 776 On 10/07/2008, adam overton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > hi > is the math of this correct? > this is what's on the 'upload variables' page: http://www.pmwiki.org/ > wiki/PmWiki/UploadVariables#UploadPrefixQuota > > $UploadMaxSize > Maximum size for uploading files (50000 octets by default) > > Units are in bytes. > 100K: 100000; > 1MB: 1000000; > 1GB: 1000000000; > 1TB: 1000000000000; > > i'm getting mixed up because I also see notes on the UploadsAdmin > page insisting that the following is correct: > > 100K: 102400; > 1MB: 1048576; > 1GB: 1073741824; > 1TB: 1099511627776; > > > the math i'm finding on the web is also confirming the latter... > wondering which one to choose... > thanks! > adam > > _______________________________________________ > pmwiki-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users > -- http://kiwiwiki.co.nz
