Almost all physicians complete at least 4 years of undergraduate school, 4 years of medical school, and, depending on their specialty, 3 to 7 years in internship and residency programs. Most applicants to medical school have at least a bachelor's degree, and many have advanced degrees.
/bi:t/ (B) A component in the machine data hierarchy larger than a bit and usually smaller than a word; now nearly always eight bits and the smallest addressable unit of storage. A byte typically holds one character. A byte may be 9 bits on 36-bit computers.
Each data type occupies a certain amount of memory space. An integer will occupy 2 bytes of memory (which means 16 bits). From this it is possible to calculate the maximum and minimum values that an integer can store. 2^16 = 65536 (hence 65536 different combinations of 16 bits are possible).
