Not really.  In a book or a slide you have an unavoidable constraint on how much 
vertical space you can take up.  On a screen, you are unavoidably going to have 
to scroll up or down at some point; it's just a question of how often.

Scrolling media (not just code) allow you to make a tradeoff between less 
vertically compact styles that better highlight different semantic blocks, 
versus more compact styles that packs more data into one screen's worth of 
lines, while usually making it less easy to highlight the semantics of what's 
being displayed.

You may lean towards favouring compact code over other factors, but at the end 
of the day this is a preference based on your personal priorities, not a hard 
and fast rule.
