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!

I agree with Jenise, because message digests have specific lengths.

Option A is correct. Message digests from different hashing algorithms will always have fixed sizes, regardless of the message size.
