.NET Framework Class Library: identify the option that is NOT a valid namespace.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: System.Process

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Distinguishing between namespaces and types prevents import and reference errors. This item tests recognition of actual .NET namespaces.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Only one of the listed entries is not a namespace.
  • Process is a type in System.Diagnostics.


Concept / Approach:
Recall common namespaces: System.Security, System.Threading, System.Drawing, and System.Xml exist. Process itself is not a namespace; it is a class used to start and manage processes.



Step-by-Step Solution:

Check System.Process → Not a namespace; incorrect entry.Check others → All are valid namespaces shipped with .NET.


Verification / Alternative check:
Use an IDE object browser or official docs; you will find Process under System.Diagnostics.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They are legitimate namespaces.



Common Pitfalls:
Confusing a type name with a namespace path (e.g., thinking System.Process parallels System.Threading).



Final Answer:
System.Process
