Render Variable: Specify a variable based on which object can be conditionally rendered.
Style Variable: Specify a variable based on which object can be conditionally styled. Style variable is used to show or represent different report objects in different styles that are present in report.
Conditional Blocks: Conditional blocks show different display results based on user interaction or parameters read in when a report is run. They provide a creative method for presenting either the same report data in various formats or executing several completely different reports from one prompt page

Answer / vipul jani
Render Variable and conditional bolcks are more or less works as the same (i.e display/hide contents), however the difference is that when we use conditional blocks, query is run only for those no. of columns which are prompted by the user, thus improves performance. Suppose users selects List report in promt then query generation takes place corresponding to list excluding other options available
