“I signed up for Binary 101, but it turns out it’s a level 5 course”

Many introductory college courses end in “101.” But what if the course is Binary 101? (101 is 5 in binary.)

PS - I wonder if a Binary 101 course would be called a Binary 5 course?

Just read “101 Things You Didn’t Know About Binary”. Much shorter than I expected. And they were right about all 5.

“Binary 101” is actually the fifth class you take in it.

I’m attending my first class in binary, “Binary 101”, which means I’ve missed the first four lessons.
