i'm new to this and am about to order parts for my first few projects and have noticed some list parts as 100u and others 100uf

i'm assuming these are the same thing as is say 10n and 10nf

also while im here does 3n3 mean 33n or 3.3n

some other things i've come across so far that i don't understand are

470p
LDR
10p

sorry for the stupid questions just want to make sure i get my first order right
