ini_parse_quantity

Get interpreted size from ini shorthand syntax

&reftitle.description; `int` `ini_parse_quantity` `string` `shorthand`

Returns the interpreted size in bytes on success from an ini shorthand.

&reftitle.parameters;

`shorthand`

- Ini shorthand to parse, must be a number followed by an optional multiplier. The following multipliers are supported: `k`/`K` (`1024`), `m`/`M` (`1048576`), `g`/`G` (`1073741824`). The number can be a decimal, hex (prefixed with `0x` or `0X`), octal (prefixed with `0o`, `0O` or `0`) or binary (prefixed with `0b` or `0B`)

&reftitle.returnvalues;

Returns the interpreted size in bytes as an &integer;.

&reftitle.errors;

If the value cannot be parsed, or an invalid multiplier is used, an `E_WARNING` is raised.

### A few `ini_parse_quantity` examples

    <?php

    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('1024'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('1024M'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('512K'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('0xFFk'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('0b1010k'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('0o1024'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('01024'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('Foobar'));
    var_dump(ini_parse_quantity('10F'));

    ?>
