Integer to Float HELP

[danrche]

Hello all,

I'm trying to convert an integer like '1073741824' (which is = about 1BG in bytes) to a Float to look like 1GB

Here's the code I've used in Vbscript

'''''''''''''''' VBscript Function ''''''''''''''''''''''

Function size(Bytes)

If Bytes >= 1073741824 Then

size = FormatNumber(Bytes \ 1024 \ 1024 \ 1024, 2) & " GB"

End If

End Function

''''''''''''''' End Vbscript ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

but I don't know autoit enough to do the same.

I just want a conversion function that i can pass my variables to and convert to a float for easier reading

Thanks Ahead of time for your suggestions, recommendations, and help.

also, how do I add tags for this post?

Daniel

This should do the trick for you:

MsgBox(0, "", _ConvertToMyNeeds(102004578888))

Func _ConvertToMyNeeds($Number)
    Select
        Case $Number > 0 And $Number < 1024
            Return $Number&" Bytes"
        Case $Number >= 1024 And $Number < 1048576
            Return Round($Number/1024)&" KB"
        Case $Number >= 1048576 And $Number < 1073741824
            Return Round($Number/1048576)&" MB"
        Case $Number >= 1073741824
            Return Round($Number/1073741824)&" GB"
    EndSelect
EndFunc

If the values I have used for MB, GB ... are wrong, change them to the correct ones (I have used 1024, 1024^2, 1024^3 ...)

enaiman, cool thanks, that's actually just what I'm looking to do. I was trying to do it with stringformat though, but couldn't figure it out, your way much easier

danrche,

This is a rough approximation following your VBScript code. Did NOT do any searching but imagine that you can find all kinds of routines in this forum.

local $bytes = 9356922358, $size

If $Bytes >= 1073741824 Then
$size = $Bytes / 1024 / 1024 / 1024 & " GB"
Endif

consolewrite( $size & @lf)

$iSize = 102004578888
$tData = DllStructCreate('wchar[80]')

$Ret = DllCall('shlwapi.dll', 'ptr', 'StrFormatByteSizeW', 'uint64', $iSize, 'ptr', DllStructGetPtr($tData), 'uint', 80)
MsgBox(0, '', DllStructGetData($tData, 1))

$Ret = DllCall('shlwapi.dll', 'ptr', 'StrFormatKBSizeW', 'uint64', $iSize, 'ptr', DllStructGetPtr($tData), 'uint', 80)
MsgBox(0, '', DllStructGetData($tData, 1))

OOOO this is nice too, Thanks for the input. I never event looked at DLLCall before.

Do you know how I can populate an array and sort on this? This is both learning and actual need for me. I'm trying to write an app much like dirsize that runs through your folders and spits out the top ten largest folders. I've been using logparser 2.2 with "Select Top 10 * into c:\bigfile.csv From C:\* order by size desc" =-i:FS -recurse:1 -o:csv

it works great, but I don't want to install logparser on all the machines, plus I don't learn to code that way either
