When determining Namespace, Class and Method - do we start from right or left?

When determining Namespace, Class and Method - do we start from right or left? Because in some of the questions there are 4 words. Furthermore, I don't understand why the namespace of q2 isn't Adobe or illustrator.

Here's 3 easy rules for method naming:

  • There are 3 parts to the name: namespace, class, and method.
  • The parts are separated by periods
  • Only the namespace can contain periods

So going right-to-left (:point_left: THIS way :point_left:), you'll find the method name, a period, the class name, another period, and everything else is the namespace (including any other periods).
