100 / 0.02 = ~5000 seconds

1 hour = 3600 sec
3600 * 0.02 = ~72MB

but this depeds from many other things, this is just simple calculating, its hard to get real speed

u can always calculate like 1MB = 1024 KB, not 1000

but this still will be only theoretical

Thank you tomekk for doing the math for me

And yes, the script should provide a theoretical indication, not precise one.
However, this is not the thing I was looking for.

I believe(and I hope) that I'll manage the mathematics part on my own.
What I was hoping is that someone could offer or help me to create the script(and by script, i mean the code part).

Hello guys.

I'm wondering that does there already exist, or can any of you tell me how to create a script that calculates data transfer speed and estimated time?

Lets say: I need to download a 100mb file, and i can dl it like 20kb/s.

The script should calculate the time for 100megs if the average dl speed is 20kilobytes/sec. And It should also work another way around. We want to know how much data we can move in 1 hours, if the transferring speed is 20kb/s.

I don't have that strong programming skills that I could create something like this on my own. However, If i can get access to some sort of source, I may be able to finish it myself.

Humbly,

Andrii
