//=>   EB: 'EB',
//=>   ZB: 'ZB',
//=>   YB: 'YB'
//=> }
prefixes();
//=> {

//=>   KB: 'KB',
//=>   MB: 'MB',
//=>   GB: 'GB',
//=>   TB: 'TB', 
//=>   PB: 'PB',
//=>   EB: 'EB',

prefixes.decimal;
//=> {
//=>   B: 'B',
//=>   KB: 'kB',
//=>   MB: 'MB',
//=>   GB: 'GB',
//=>   TB: 'TB', 
//=>   PB: 'PB',
//=>   EB: 'EB',
//=>   ZB: 'ZB',
//=>   YB: 'YB'
//=> }
prefixes({ decimal: true });
//=> {
//=>   B: 'B',
//=>   KB: 'kB',
//=>   MB: 'MB',
//=>   GB: 'GB',
//=>   TB: 'TB', 
//=>   PB: 'PB',
//=>   EB: 'EB',
//=>   ZB: 'ZB',
//=>   YB: 'YB'
//=> }

// Using custom prefixes
prefixes({ custom: { KB: 'kilobytes', GB: 'gigga-bytes' } });
//=> {
//=>   B: 'B',
//=>   KB: 'kilobytes',
//=>   MB: 'MB',
//=>   GB: 'gigga-bytes',
//=>   TB: 'TB',
