Question: True or False: The following blocks of code (Code Block 1 and Code Block 2) result in the same output in the command window when evaluated.

Option 1: True
- If someone reads both blocks quickly, they might assume they are identical implementations. However, subtle differences in indentation, conditional structure, or the placement of end statements can change which branch executes for certain values of RandVec(i).
- In some programming environments, even a tiny difference in the logical test or the scope of an end can alter how results are printed, especially when handling edge values (e.g., values equal to 10 or 20). Hence, assuming exact sameness without verifying each control-flow path can be misleading.
- A student should consider the exact conditional logic and the evaluation order: if one block uses a different condition (for example, <= 10 vs < 10, or a different ordering of the if/elseif blocks), or a different end placement, the printed output can differ for specific RandVec(i) values. Therefore, without inspecting the precise code structure, claiming identical output is risky.

Option 2: False
- The statement that the blocks do not produce the same output can be correct if there is any discrepancy in the conditional checks, the messages printed, or the loop boundaries between the two blocks.
- For instance, if one block treats a boundary value (such as 10 or 20) differently than the other block, that single difference would yield a different sequence of printed lines for some iterations, leading to non-identical outputs.
- Additionally, differences in how the end statements terminate nested blocks could affect which print statement runs for a given RandVec(i), altering the final displayed vector.

Why the two blocks may differ (potential sources of discrepancy):
- Boundary conditions: If one block uses RandVec(i) <= 10 while the other uses RandVec(i) < 10 (or any other boundary), values at the boundary could be printed differently.
- Print statements: If the blocks employ different fprintf formats or messages (e.g., printing the number vs printing a placeholder like 'Too Large!'), outputs will diverge for certain RandVec(i) values.
- Loop and block structure: A mismatch in the nesting or placement of end statements can change which code path executes for a given index i, especially if one block ends the for-loop or an if-block at a different point.

Summary: Although both blocks appear to set up a 1 x 10 vector with random integers from 1 to 20 and iterate over it, small differences in the conditional logic or block termination can produce different printed outputs for some RandVec values. Therefore, the claim that they produce the same output is not guaranteed, and the statement 'True' is not universally correct.

Note: The provided correct answer indicates False, meaning the two blocks do not necessarily yield the same output across all possible executions.
