What is the difference between .NET and C#?

The question is about .NET

Answer:

It is a development platform, but C# is a programming language. That is, .NET provides you with an environment, libraries, and all other tools to create and run an application on multiple platforms, whereas C# is the primary language that you use with .NET to write code for those applications. In simple words, NET is the platform, while C# is one of the languages you use to build applications on that platform.
