Summing the file sizes in a directory

If you wish to calculate a total size for all files in a directory on a Unix, Linux, or Mac system running Apple's OS X operating system, two ways to do so are by using the awk utility or with the Python programming language. E.g., ls -l example | awk '{sum +=$5} END {print sum}'. For a Python solution, you can use the dirsize.py program.
