If file does not exist, will raise an exception, wouldn't be more friendly to check if file exists first. Here is my code based on yours:

def filesizemb(filepath): if os.path.exists(filepath): return (float(os.path.getsize(filepath)))/1024 * 1024 return -1

Great addition. This snippit was being used within the context of code that was already checking for file existence, so I didn't think to add it to the function itself.

Thanks.
