"It's a trick question!  There is no answer!  1 squared is 1, which in base two (binary code) is 1.  2 squared is 4, which in base three is 11.  3 squared is 9, which in base four is 21.  Following this pattern, 8 squared is 71 (base nine), 9 squared is 81 (base ten), A squared is 91 (base eleven), and B squared is A1 (base twelve).  The pattern could go on indefinitely, but the result would never go beyond a two-digit number.  Thus, 101 would never be reached -- in any base."
