you do one after a normal punctuation but you can do two after full stops if you want to.

Another Answer

Read your style guide for the number of spaces that are appropriate for your readers. (Or ask your instructor.) As well, some type styles (fonts) afford the option for only one space after a full stop (French Spacing).

Punctuation simply affords humans the clues they need to mentally digest written text. Punctuation can indicate an embedded thought, a pause or in the case of a paragraph mark, a whole new series of ideas.
