| Aug 23, 2014 at 11:08 | comment | added | Federico Poloni | There is a bit of confusion here; do you mean "paper (dead tree) books vs ebooks and online notes", or "all of the above vs browsing randomly on Wikipedia, Planetmath, Google and the like looking for the proof you need"? | |

| Aug 22, 2014 at 20:12 | comment | added | rfulop | Your question is a bit ambiguous, could you clarify. I'm not sure if you want to compare contributing to stacks.math.columbia.edu/ to writing a text book or if you want to know if you as a student which you should read for a more advanced subject. | |
