EEPROM erase/program cycles >100K

The user manual of LPC1788 reads
Endurance of >100K erase/program cycles .

What among the following must i conclude from the sentence?

a. Maximum of 100K cycles, the memory location(s) would then be useless _which is assume is not the case_
b. Minimum of 100K cycles, but no guarantee of the erase/program cycles after that.
c. Infinite cycles

PS:
I know that this has nothing to do with a KEIL Forum, but have found some of the most intelligent people over here who share the knowledge in-depth.
The question may seem a very un-intelligent, and i may look like an ignorant, but need to confirm this i want to perform data write every second.

  • which can be achieved by using the ECC (Error Correction Code) algorithm implemented for Nand Flash Memories.

    sure, but ....
    that would require an whole sector erase cycle for every write, whereas a "wandering write" would only require a cycle when a sector is full
