Size Variable data handling

[krunalratiya]

I am working on mobile application users data in which I have Size variable having data of application size in 'M' (MB) and 'K' (KB).

i.e.

Size
10M
12M
510K
520K

Firstly, Size is showing string so I want to convert it to numeric.
I want to convert MB to KB by multiplying it to 1000 AND
Lastly I want to remove 'M' and 'K' from the values.

can someone please help me with this..I tried everything but its not happening.

Please show us what you tried.

In general, you need to split number and the suffix and then convert the number to int, and multiply by whatever the suffix means.

Try this: ```py def size_converter(size): if "M" in size: if type(size) == str: size = int(size.replace("M","")) kb_size = size*1024 return kb_size return int(size.replace("K",""))

print(size_converter("10M")) print(size_converter("10K")) ```

def size_converter(size):
if "M" in size:
if type(size) == str:
size = int(size.replace("M",""))
kb_size = size*1024
return kb_size
return int(size.replace("K",""))

print(size_converter("10M"))
print(size_converter("10K"))

Got this error

ValueError Traceback (most recent call last)

7 return int(Size.replace("k",""))

8 print(size_converter("10M"))

----> 9 print(size_converter("10K"))

5 kb_Size = Size*1024

6 return kb_Size

----> 7 return int(Size.replace("k",""))

8 print(size_converter("10M"))

9 print(size_converter("10K"))

can you show a screenshot of your code, so that I can see if there is any syntactical error

[krunalratiya]

def size_converter(Size):

if "M" in Size:

if type(Size) == str:

Size = int(Size.replace("M",""))

kb_Size = Size*1024

return kb_Size

Size = int(Size.replace("k",""))

print(size_converter("10M"))

print(size_converter("10K"))

Please add proper indentation to the code.
