The true horror movie for math students isn't Saw—it's linear algebra without computational tools. Finding eigenvalues of a 4x4 matrix by hand? Might as well play a game with Jigsaw himself! You'd need to solve a 4th degree characteristic polynomial, which is basically mathematical torture. The determinant alone would have 24 terms! Even math professors quietly reach for their Wolfram Alpha when no one's looking. The only difference between this and actual torture is that at least torture eventually ends.
