Different stream of pseudorandom numbers

I have a homework problem on running a simulation where I generate 100 random numbers and perform a calculation on each outcome. The next question asks me to repeat the previous question but with a different stream of pseudorandom numbers. The side note tells me to to perform two computations within one call to the program because changing the seed/state arbitrary can lead to overlapping streams.

Can someone explain to me what this means? Why do I have to do it through 1 loop? Why can't I just call the same code twice using a different seed each time?
