About both units

From

Millisecond

ms

The millisecond equals 0.001 second. Essential in computing, networking and high-speed photography. Human reaction time is about 200โ€“300 ms. Video frame rates of 60 fps correspond to a 16.67 ms per frame.

Real-world: Ping to a local server: 5โ€“20 ms. Game frame at 60 fps: 16.67 ms. Human reaction: 200โ€“300 ms.

Century

c

A century equals 100 Julian years. Used in historical, cultural and archaeological contexts. The 21st century covers 2001โ€“2100 technically, though popular usage often treats 2000โ€“2099 as the 21st.

Real-world: The 20th century = 1901โ€“2000. A century-old building. Modern human civilisation spans tens of centuries.

Tips & common mistakes

Quick tips

  • 1 ms = 0.001 s = 1000 ยตs.
  • 60 fps = 16.67 ms/frame; 144 Hz gaming monitor = 6.94 ms/frame.
  • Network latency under 30 ms feels instantaneous to humans.

Avoid these

  • Reading ms as s on game latency โ€” 100 ms vs 100 s would be drastically different.
  • Confusing ms with ยตs (microsecond, 1000ร— smaller).
  • Treating ms as a generic "short time" โ€” it is specifically 10โปยณ s.
