Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51834&edit=1 ID: 51834 Updated by: johannes@php.net Reported by: alexc223 at googlemail dot com Summary: shorthand notation states 1 kilobyte = 1024 bytes -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Type: Documentation Problem Package: Documentation problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: You might be correct from a scientifical or theoretical point if view. In real world average users expect a "kilobyte" to be 1024 bytes. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-16 15:48:45] alexc223 at googlemail dot com Description: ------------ Within the documentation, the FAQs state that shorthand notation uses 'K' for Kilobytes which further goes on to state that 1 Kilobyte equals 1024 bytes. This is incorrect as 1 kilobyte actually equals 1000 bytes. 1 Kibibyte is equal to 1024, not kilobyte. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51834&edit=1
