Resumes, Source code, Harassment, Profanity, Threat are pre-trained classifiers that exist already in Microsoft 365 -> Source code is correct

Correct, the trap here is "The department provides samples of the code from its document library"... you are not minimizing efforts if you training a new classifier.

The key is the "minimize administrative effort". Could you use other options on here to get to the same end result, yes... but the Source code option is built in so requires minimal effort. So that's why I'm sticking with C

In this case you should use a trainable classifier since you want to classify data and this can be done with the trainable classifier. The custom classifier will demand more administrative effort than the "Source code classifier" that are already available since you are going to need to train it. Correct answer, source code classifier.

the exact reference here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/classifier-tc-definitions?view=o365-worldwide#trainable-classifiers-definitions Source code is trained to detect when the bulk of the text is source code. It does not detect source code text that is interspersed with plain text.

Should be A as seen in here. Ok there is a built-in but why would we have samples for that? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/classifier-get-started-with?view=o365-worldwide

It is option C so it mentions "The solution must minimize administrative effort." and the pre-built option has 25 programming languages.
