a 100 bucks does seem kinda steep and that too for Maths
Nah. I once had to spend $250 on a math text. That then they wouldn't buy back.
The most expensive text I had to buy was a $375 philosophy text, which then the professor never referenced, and instead gave xeroxed pages from other texts, but still required us to have on our person.
