Yes, the answer is medium column.

Le/r is called slenderness ratio. If it is > 120 it is called long beam. But mostly > 100 is preferred as long beam.

Short Column: 0< Le / r < 60.
Intermediate Column: 60< Le / r <120.
Long Column: 120< Le / r < 300.
Intermediate Column: 60< Le / r <120.
Long Column: 120< Le / r < 300.

For long columns, slenderness ratio is greater than 100.
For shorter >20.
And for the medium between 20-100.
For shorter >20.
And for the medium between 20-100.

Below 80 short.
Above 80 long.
SR=l/k.
Above 80 long.
SR=l/k.

Medium column is the right answer.

A short steel column is one whose slenderness ratio does not exceed 50; an intermediate length steel column has a slenderness ratio ranging from about 50 to 200, and are dominated by the strength limit of the material, while a long steel column may be assumed to have a slenderness ratio greater than 200 and its behavior is dominated by the modulus of elasticity of the material.

SR<50 SHORT COLUMN.
SR>120 LONG COLUMN.
50<SR<120 MEDIUM COLUMN.
SR>120 LONG COLUMN.
50<SR<120 MEDIUM COLUMN.

S.R IS LESS THAN 32 - SHORT COLUMN.
S.R IS 32-100 THAN - MEDIUM COLUMN.
S.R IS GREATER THAN 100 - LONG COLUMN.
S.R IS 32-100 THAN - MEDIUM COLUMN.
S.R IS GREATER THAN 100 - LONG COLUMN.

@Abhinav yadav said that for long column slenderness ratio more than 120 but question is if slenderness ratio for a column is 100 then answer would be a medium column. Is it yes or no.
