Technically a hole is an opening so a stra has two holes and one interconnecting tube between both holes.

2 holes, 1 tube

depends what type of straw your talking is it straw as in wheat/barley straw or a drinking straw?

it either case millions/billions, you just can't see them & liquid is larger so doesn't leak.

Because a doughnut doesn't have a joining tube, just two radiused adjoining openings with no parallel running walls between them...the hole is the meeting point between the two radii.

Most ring doughnuts have a flat area inside most of the time. The better example was a metal ring though of course... How rounded does the internal surface have to be for it to only be one hole?

If it's a hole at all...

I look at it like this: If I pick up a straw, I examine it to decide which hole I want to suck out of.

Ergo, there must be 2 holes.

If viewing the trousers as three separate cylinders I'd agree somewhat...... but a complete pair of trousers has only two routes.... with the waist being a shared entrance or exit.....

2 holes.

I've parked this idea a while. I'm considering a buttoned shirt. Both fastened and unfastened.

If you put your finger through a doughnut there is only one place it can come out, so that's one hole. For pants, put your leg through and there are 2 places it can come out. If you drill a hole through a wall, that's an opening on each side but only one hole

Most ring doughnuts have a flat area inside most of the time. The better example was a metal ring though of course... How rounded does the internal surface have to be for it to only be one hole?

If it's a hole at all..."

So let's consider the hole as being 10mm in diameter, as an engineer I would say that if the length of the inner surface between two holes was larger than the two adjoining holes at say 20mm the there is a connecting tube between them so that would make 2 holes.

If the connecting tube was less than the diameter of the opening adjoining holes then the tube doesn't exist therefore there is one hole.

Also consider how the hole(s) were made.

Take a block of wood, drill a blind hole from one side and then do the same from the other opposing side until you breach the first hole thus forming a through hole/opening. You have drilled two separate holes therefore that cylinder inside the block you have opened up has two holes.

You could also drill it from one side all the way through and have a valid claim it is one hole.

Both arguments therefore must have merit that it is one hole and also two holes depending on both method of making said hole/tube and from your viewpoint either mathematically or practically.

P.s. pure mathematics has a straw worked out topologically as being one hole

I'm good at that.

So I think 1 is the 2nd best answer. I think I prefer 0 though, as I think, as per your example, you need to create a hole for it to be a hole. You need to remove something, and nothing is removed from a straw. If you have a hula hoop and disconnect it so it's a big c, you can't surely say you've destroyed a hole. You've broken the ring, but the hole was never there in the first place.

Also from your example though, that logic mostly requires you to know how the thing was made... which tbh gets a bit far fetched. But still zero holes for me I think.

I guess a straw can be described as a thin tunnel, or tube maybe? More tunnel as it has an entry and exit so not sure the two hole theory fits...

This needs to be discussed over a lot of very strong beers sat in a pub I reckon as getting to the bottom of this hole could take a while

Oh and you can form a tube from a flat sheet which has a hole at each end so you can create a hole without punchong the actual hole itself out of a block of material.....think on that one while you go to the bar and work out what your response is hahaaa

On a mooch

From a mathematical point of view

For a surface with boundary, such as a straw with its two boundary circles, each cut must begin and end on a boundary. So, according to Riemann, because a straw can be cut only once — from end to end — it has exactly one hole.

Or

The mathematically correct answer is 1 hole. A straw is topologically the product of a circle, which has 1 hole, and an interval, which has 0 holes

See even they can’t agree

I think it has to be discussed in relation to the proportions of the object and length between the openings. If the same hole was in a huge block of concrete you would call it a hole but we would probably not say that the mouth and anus were the same hole despite being connected.
