I think bitmath would be overkill to include in its entirety, but maybe there solution is a good one. There is also: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/byteformat/ https://pypi.python.org/pypi/datasize https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hurry.filesize https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hfilesize/ https://humanfriendly.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ https://pypi.python.org/pypi/humanize and a bajillion other solutions here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1094841/reusable-library-to-get-human-readable-version-of-file-size and elsewhere - I think really the underscoring how common this problem is. (Although I don't _particularly want_ this to expand beyond the scope of this single function, it does seem that given the amount of "Python for Humans" stuff out there, there could be an argument made for adding a "humanize" package into the standard library..)
