Remarks
InvalidOperationException is used in cases when the failure to invoke a method is caused by reasons other than invalid arguments.
If the method invocation failure is due to invalid arguments, then ArgumentException or one of its derived classes, ArgumentNullException or ArgumentOutOfRangeException, should be thrown instead.
