Package: libbytesize1 (1.4-1)

[ Source: libbytesize  ]

library for common operations with sizes in bytes

Many projects need to work with sizes in bytes (be it sizes of storage space, memory,...) and all of them need to deal with the same issues like:

 * How to get a human-readable string for the given size?
 * How to store the given size so that no significant information is lost?
 * If we store the size in bytes, what if the given size gets over the
   MAXUINT64 value?  How to interpret sizes entered by users according
   to their locale and typing conventions?
 * How to deal with the decimal/binary units (MB vs. MiB) ambiguity?
 .
 This library aims to be as much generally usable as possible, small, fast and
 be easily interfaced from other languages.
