#141520 - 1024 = Ki Responding to: ???'s previous message |
there is some ISO norm for that above (so, it should be KiB for kilobytes), but we all hopefully agree that it's really ridiculous.
Even if the commonly used method (k=1000 when talking SI, 1024 when talking computers) is imperfect, it's a defacto standard and those tend to work better than the written (and often artificially madeup) ones. Now comes Steve, throwing the best known artificially madeup standard - the standard kilogram cylinder from Sevres - into my head... :-) JW PS. I found it, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibibyte so it was IEC not ISO and it is kibi not kilo... But that's even more ricidulous. |
