After reading Jignesh's post you might be wondering why you haven't noticed before that C# supports unions which are normally thought of as a C/C++ construct. The answer is that it doesn't support them directly but you can represent them in C# by applying some attributes to a struct or class.

hi A Namespace in Microsoft .Net is like containers of objects. They may contain unions classes structures interfaces enumerators and delegates. Main goal of using namespace in .Net is for creating a hierarchical organization of program. In this case a developer does not need to worry about the naming conflicts of classes functions variables etc. inside a project. In Microsoft .Net every program is created with a default namespace. This default namespace is called as global namespace . But the program itself can declare any number of namespaces each of them with a unique name. The advantage is that every namespace can contain any number of classes functions variables and also namespaces etc. whose names are unique only inside the namespace. The members with the same name can be created in some other namespace without any compiler complaints from Microsoft .Net.

If a class (or other type) doesn't belong to a particular namespace then it is said to belong to the 'global' namespace. In the event of a name clash you can clarify that a type (SomeType say) belongs to the global namespace using the following syntax: global::SomeType 'global' is a contextual keyword (it's only a keyword when used in certain situations) and :: is called the scope resolution operator.
