Two spaces after full stop or question mark?
I remember I was told to leave two spaces after full stop or question mark during my school day that was eon ago. Is it still a valid statement?
Perhaps that was only for typewriting.

Yes, it was said during the days of mechanical typewriters. Modern word processing systems have made the rule obsolete. However, some situations (such as a formal legal petition) may require double spacing between lines and sentences.
