Filesize convertion in c#

Just for sharing, I found this small code from this site and this is the easiest way for converting bytes (because I’m a Math guru who repeated College Algebra by 5 times that is why I picked this code rather dividing large numbers to 1024 by 1024 and so on…).So let Microsoft do the Math Okay! .

        private string ToFileSize(long source)
        {
            const int byteConversion = 1024;
            double bytes = Convert.ToDouble(source);
 
            if (bytes >= Math.Pow(byteConversion, 4)) //TB Range
            {
                return string.Concat(Math.Round(bytes / Math.Pow(byteConversion, 4), 2), " TB");
            }
            if (bytes >= Math.Pow(byteConversion, 3)) //GB Range
            {
                return string.Concat(Math.Round(bytes / Math.Pow(byteConversion, 3), 2), " GB");
            }
            else if (bytes >= Math.Pow(byteConversion, 2)) //MB Range
            {
                return string.Concat(Math.Round(bytes / Math.Pow(byteConversion, 2), 2), " MB");
            }
            else if (bytes >= byteConversion) //KB Range
            {
                return string.Concat(Math.Round(bytes / byteConversion, 2), " KB");
            }
            else //Bytes
            {
                return string.Concat(bytes, " Bytes");
            }
        }

The CamelCase

NO! that was not what I mean(*meant) (as opposed on the other term used on(*in) the dark industry).

For developers/programmers this practice should be well much understood and as for me,much better to use than the traditional “strVariableName” or “intVariableName”. Please read more about this in wiki

Yesterday evening just minutes before the start of my daily routine work (of sleeping..just kidding!) I got a call from someone that I am waiting and praying for the past couple of days that maybe a start of my new better life and a career that Im dreaming of…

Goodluck to me.

PS: A million thanks to you Mr. Menno!
