 In this schematic we can either say that 8×2 electron states are occupied (the system has 8×2 electrons counting spin), or 10×2 hole states are occupied.
 A useful analogy to remember: glass half-full or glass half-empty.
 Electron and hole pictures correspond to two different, but equivalent ways of describing the occupation of a band.
-In practise, we choose to deal with electrons(holes) whenever a band is almost empty(full).
