 +====== IEC Binary Prefixes ======
 +
 +The primary system in which binary unit magnetudes are represented. Intended to replace SI units for digital measurements, where
 +numbers are represented in base-2 rather than base-10. Thus, when referring to units, generally KB is the SI interpretation of $1\cdot 10^3$
 +whereas 1KiB referrers to the IEC interpretation of $1\cdot 2^{10}$ in base-2.
