### prettyBytes
Converts a number in bytes to a human-readable string.
Use an array dictionary of units to be accessed based on the exponent.
Use `Number.toPrecision()` to truncate the number to a certain number of digits.
Return the prettified string by building it up, taking into account the supplied options and whether it is negative or not.
Omit the second argument, `precision`, to use a default precision of `3` digits.
Omit the third argument, `addSpace`, to add space between the number and unit by default.
```js
const prettyBytes = (num, precision = 3, addSpace = true) => {
const UNITS = ['B','KB','MB','GB','TB','PB','EB','ZB','YB'];
if (Math.abs(num) < 1) return num + (addSpace ? ' ' : '') + UNITS[0];
const exponent = Math.min(Math.floor(Math.log10(num < 0 ? -num : num) / 3), UNITS.length - 1);
const n = Number(((num < 0 ? -num : num) / 1000 ** exponent).toPrecision(precision));
return ((num < 0 ? '-' : '') + n + (addSpace ? ' ' : '') + UNITS[exponent]);
};
```
```js
prettyBytes(1000); // 1 KB
prettyBytes(123456789); // 123 MB
prettyBytes(-50); // -50 B
prettyBytes(27145424323.5821); // 27.1 GB
prettyBytes(27145424323.5821, 5 ); // 27.145 GB
prettyBytes(5500, 3, false); // 5.5KB
```
