Converting file size in bytes to human-readable st

I'm using this function to convert a file size in bytes to a human-readable file size:

function getReadableFileSizeString(fileSizeInBytes) {
    var i = -1;
    var byteUnits = [' kB', ' MB', ' GB', ' TB', 'PB', 'EB', 'ZB', 'YB'];
    do {
        fileSizeInBytes = fileSizeInBytes / 1024;
        i++;
    } while (fileSizeInBytes > 1024);

    return Math.max(fileSizeInBytes, 0.1).toFixed(1) + byteUnits[i];
};

However, it seems like this isn't 100% accurate. For example:

getReadableFileSizeString(1551859712); // output is "1.4 GB"

Shouldn't this be "1.5 GB"? It seems like the division by 1024 is losing precision. Am I totally misunderstanding something or is there a better way to do this?

Another embodiment of the calculation

function humanFileSize(size) {
    var i = Math.floor( Math.log(size) / Math.log(1024) );
    return ( size / Math.pow(1024, i) ).toFixed(2) * 1 + ' ' + ['B', 'kB', 'MB', 'GB', 'TB'][i];
};

let bytes = 1024 * 10 * 10 * 10;

console.log(getReadableFileSizeString(bytes))

will return 1000.0Кб instead of 1MB

Ridiculous、

Here's one I wrote:

function humanFileSize(bytes, si) {
    var thresh = si ? 1000 : 1024;
    if(Math.abs(bytes) < thresh) {
        return bytes + ' B';
    }
    var units = si
        ? ['kB','MB','GB','TB','PB','EB','ZB','YB']
        : ['KiB','MiB','GiB','TiB','PiB','EiB','ZiB','YiB'];
    var u = -1;
    do {
        bytes /= thresh;
        ++u;
    } while(Math.abs(bytes) >= thresh && u < units.length - 1);
    return bytes.toFixed(1)+' '+units[u];
}

e.g.

humanFileSize(5000,true)
> "5.0 kB"
humanFileSize(5000,false)
> "4.9 KiB"
humanFileSize(-10000000000000000000000000000)
> "-8271.8 YiB"

I found @cocco's answer interesting, but had the following issues with it:

Don't modify native types or types you don't own
Write clean, readable code for humans, let minifiers optimize code for machines
(Bonus for TypeScript users) Doesn't play well with TypeScript

TypeScript:

 /**
 * Describes manner by which a quantity of bytes will be formatted.
 */
enum ByteFormat {
  /**
   * Use Base 10 (1 kB = 1000 bytes). Recommended for sizes of files on disk, disk sizes, bandwidth.
   */
  SI = 0,
  /**
   * Use Base 2 (1 KiB = 1024 bytes). Recommended for RAM size, size of files on disk.
   */
  IEC = 1
}

/**
 * Returns a human-readable representation of a quantity of bytes in the most reasonable unit of magnitude.
 * @example
 * formatBytes(0) // returns "0 bytes"
 * formatBytes(1) // returns "1 byte"
 * formatBytes(1024, ByteFormat.IEC) // returns "1 KiB"
 * formatBytes(1024, ByteFormat.SI) // returns "1.02 kB"
 * @param size The size in bytes.
 * @param format Format using SI (Base 10) or IEC (Base 2). Defaults to SI.
 * @returns A string describing the bytes in the most reasonable unit of magnitude.
 */
function formatBytes(
  value: number,
  format: ByteFormat = ByteFormat.SI
) {
  const [multiple, k, suffix] = (format === ByteFormat.SI
    ? [1000, 'k', 'B']
    : [1024, 'K', 'iB']) as [number, string, string]
  // tslint:disable-next-line: no-bitwise
  const exp = (Math.log(value) / Math.log(multiple)) | 0
  // or, if you'd prefer not to use bitwise expressions or disabling tslint rules, remove the line above and use the following:
  // const exp = value === 0 ? 0 : Math.floor(Math.log(value) / Math.log(multiple)) 
  const size = Number((value / Math.pow(multiple, exp)).toFixed(2))
  return (
    size +
    ' ' +
    (exp 
       ? (k + 'MGTPEZY')[exp - 1] + suffix 
       : 'byte' + (size !== 1 ? 's' : ''))
  )
}

// example
[0, 1, 1024, Math.pow(1024, 2), Math.floor(Math.pow(1024, 2) * 2.34), Math.pow(1024, 3), Math.floor(Math.pow(1024, 3) * 892.2)].forEach(size => {
  console.log('Bytes: ' + size)
  console.log('SI size: ' + formatBytes(size))
  console.log('IEC size: ' + formatBytes(size, 1) + '\n')
});

Based on cocco's idea, here's a less compact -but hopefully more comprehensive- example.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>File info</title>

<script>
<!--
function fileSize(bytes) {
    var exp = Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(1024) | 0;
    var result = (bytes / Math.pow(1024, exp)).toFixed(2);

    return result + ' ' + (exp == 0 ? 'bytes': 'KMGTPEZY'[exp - 1] + 'B');
}

function info(input) {
    input.nextElementSibling.textContent = fileSize(input.files[0].size);
} 
-->
</script>
</head>

<body>
<label for="upload-file"> File: </label>
<input id="upload-file" type="file" onchange="info(this)">
<div></div>
</body>
</html>

sizeOf = function (bytes) {
  if (bytes == 0) { return "0.00 B"; }
  var e = Math.floor(Math.log(bytes) / Math.log(1024));
  return (bytes/Math.pow(1024, e)).toFixed(2)+' '+' KMGTP'.charAt(e)+'B';
}

sizeOf(2054110009);
//=> "1.91 GB"

sizeOf(7054110);
//=> "6.73 MB"

sizeOf( (3*1024*1024) );
//=> "3.00 MB"
