System.Core is an assembly (System.Core.dll), not a namespace. There is no "System.Core" namespace. System.Core.dll contains types in the namespaces System.IO, System.Linq, System.Threading, and others:

`using System.Core;` is thus not valid in a C# app, unless you yourself have declared types in a "System.Core" namespace.
