  • Why 101 ?

    I always hear about information called -subject- 101. This information seems to cover an entire topic. So.. I know what it means, but what does 101 refer to, why 101 ?

    I guess in schools (in universities / colleges as well) they have courses like English 100, 101, 110, etc. So it just got off from that. After all, we're in academic facilities to learn information, so (whatever) 101 refers to this very same thing.

      More than that though, people use 101 specifically because it usually refers to the most basic course in any particular field, or sometimes just a general overview.

                    Because colleges and universities like using numbers. They make their courses easy to organize and categorize. For example, the basics course would be 101, with the first 1 usually indicating a first year course. Not all courses use simple adjectives like "basic", "intermediate" and "advanced", while using numbers gives them a structure to easily organize their courses.

                      for instance, 101, 102, 103, and 104 would all be basic-level classes that you could take without any previous knowledge on the subject.

                      201, 202, etc, youd need some knowledge, perhaps you could jump right in but youd be better served by taking a 100-level class first
