JavaScript: convert 10 megabytes (MB) to bytes (B)
let converted = DataUnit.MEGABYTE.toBytes(BigNumber(10));
console.log(converted.toString()); // 10000000
// or use convert() instead
converted = DataUnit.BYTE.convert(BigNumber(10), DataUnit.MEGABYTE);
console.log(converted.toString()); // 10000000TypeScript: convert 1 gibibyte (GiB) to mebibytes (MiB)
let converted: BigNumber = DataUnit.GIBIBYTE.toMebibytes(BigNumber(1));
console.log(converted.toString()); // 1024
// or use convert() instead
converted = DataUnit.MEBIBYTE.convert(BigNumber(1), DataUnit.GIBIBYTE);
console.log(converted.toString()); // 1024Supported Data Units
