What both ways? You can't consistently get it to output Harry Potter verbatim. That's my point - not reproducible.

There are many ways to write a forloop. Why do you need exact reproducibility for achieving a task?

Not "exact reproducibility", but simple reproducibility at all. You need that to fix bugs, improve things and reason about them.
