On the contrary, this is math applied to something you're interested in.
Stuff that made no sense will suddenly make perfect sense.

I never took calculus. Everything I know about it is from reading stuff
like EN, i.e. non-textbooks.

Something no one has every mentioned about this--you want "D-ring" binders
for this. Cheaper binders with round rings will not do. Pay the extra money
and get the ones with rings with a flat side. This makes browsing MUCH
easier and cuts down on the wear on the holes. You can also cram more
sheets into the binder without any problems.

An absolute must-have for this project. Don't kid yourself that you're
going to use a one-hole-at-a-time punch. And even then it's going to take a
while.

Funny how this just keeps getting more expensive, isn't it? The cost of
membership in a rather exclusive club...
