However student 1 (once hired) will get more raises because he knows how to find the pertinent information in a timely manner. ;-)
...until his manager discovers that all he's doing is asking his colleagues, his friends, and random people on the internet to do his work for him, because he never learned to reason independently in school.
Bah. Loaded question, anyway. The whole learn-it-yourself/use-references-dumbass debate pretty much inevitably turns into one giant excluded middle fallacy.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
