Memory in a multiple of the unit byte

Display memory information in a multiple of the unit byte

You are now following this Submission

memory2 is a wrapper for the built-in memory function but displays memory information in a multiple of the unit byte.
Accepted units are: B, kB, MB, GB, KiB, MiB and GiB
Example:

>> user = memory2()

user =

MaxPossibleArrayBytes: 2.5348e+10
MemAvailableAllArrays: 2.5348e+10
MemUsedMATLAB: 897638400

>> user = memory2('gb')

user =

MaxPossibleArrayBytes: 25.3109
MemAvailableAllArrays: 25.3109
MemUsedMATLAB: 0.8894

>> user = memory2('gib')

user =

MaxPossibleArrayBytes: 23.5741
MemAvailableAllArrays: 23.5741
MemUsedMATLAB: 0.8319
