I don't know about console colors, but IIRC standard error stream is flushed automatically while standard output is not. So if both stderr and stdout are directed to the console, the output is likely to be
0 2 4 6 8 10 12 .. 98 100 1 3 5 7 9 11 .. 97 99 (spaces for clarity)

+1
but std output buffer might be nearly full...
it might flush before all the odd numbers in that for loop are dealt with

i don't think it can be predicted without knowing the rest of the program (before this bit of code is called)

You can not predict the output. It will print the numbers in random order and color will depend on the consoles

The order of elements to be print is not determined, because we write them to different streams. Each will be flushed in it's own time. So we will get different results.

in a Windows command line error and output streams are flushed as they're printed. The result is thus:
012345678910111213... till 100

it will give
99
100

As we are over writing value of i in every loop.For 99,it will go to else part and print 99.For 100,it goes to if part and replace i.
