Although round, 100 has baffled number theory students and English majors for many years due to its wildly fluctuating nature. Some reports have put its value as low as 5 and 30, others have placed it as high as 101 and 127 or even higher. Every time the value of 100 is invoked, its meaning is changed, making it a socially dangerous number to talk about. For example, subtle differences in context and culture can change a significant 100 million dollars into a measly 1 billion dollar.
