I agree with C, different algorithms mean different outputs.

Wait, how can they be swapped? That seems off.

I feel like the statement about them being based on the same hashing algorithm is definitely false, but I need to double-check that.

I practiced a question like this before, and I believe they can't be swapped since they come from different algorithms.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think they might have fixed sizes depending on the algorithms used.

I remember that different hashing algorithms produce different outputs, so I think X1 and Y1 won't match.

This is a good test of my understanding of hashing algorithms. I'll need to carefully consider the properties of X1 and Y1 to determine which statements are true.

I think the key here is understanding that X1 and Y1 are created using different algorithms, so they can't be swapped or considered the same. I'm leaning towards C as the correct answer.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. Aren't message digests supposed to have a fixed size regardless of the algorithm used? I'll have to double-check that.

Okay, I know that message digests created by different hashing algorithms won't match, so I'm pretty sure the answer is C.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about the differences between the hashing algorithms X and Y.

Wait, option D? Seriously? How can they be based on the same algorithm if the question clearly states they are different algorithms X and Y?

I think option D is incorrect because the question states that they use different algorithms.

Option C is definitely true. Since the algorithms are different, the resulting message digests X1 and Y1 will not match.

Haha, option D is like saying 'they're the same, but also different' - that's some quantum-level logic right there!
