> 365·243 ought to be 365·2425 exactly:
Yes. This is also how it is defined: https://github.com/sharkdp/numbat/blob/ba9e97b1fbf6353d24695...
The calculation above is showing a rounded result (6 significant digits by default).

cpc

Text calculator with support for units and conversion
prettysize-rs

1 37 6.3 Rust

Pretty-print file sizes and more

Project mention: The most copied StackOverflow snippet of all time is flawed | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-27

Shameless plug: another option to format sizes in a human readable format quickly and correctly (other than copying from S/O), you can use one of our open source PrettySize libraries, available for rust [0] and .NET [1]. They also make performing type-safe logical operations on file sizes safe and easy!
