So I was reading this, about the practical application of topology.
I wanted to ask what exactly is in it---as a subject what is studied in this field.
I have seen videos wherein they oversimplify tell us that in topology, you squeeze and stretch but don't cut, or how a donut and a mug is equivalent. (I think it must be like simplifying calculus and saying that it's just fancy addition.)
How does it help in mathematics, because it is studied as a full fledged course, it must have its perks and used too.... [ Also considering that there are so many tags under this topic on SE ] ??
(I am still in high school so I don't have a lot of information, but I consider myself to be a curious math enthusiast)
