do you buy updated book editions? what are the advantages?

Thank you!
Often the questions/problems in the book have changed, and you need the same edition that the class uses in order to be able to do the assigned work correctly.

(It’s almost as though publishers know that courses assign work from the book, and make sure to change the problems to limit the used book market and force sales of new editions. )
