Inequality Help

Hello, sorry if this isn't the correct place to post but please help me out. I have the following eqn.

X:= a + b <= c + d = 0

How do I get X to be defined as the lesser of the two. I want it to be defined as C+D if it is smaller, Not 0 or 1.

It is only returning 0 or 1 depending on if the statement is true or false.

Thanks for the response but a better solution I figured out is as follows:

X := if(a+b<=c+d,a+b,c+d) This allows the inequality to return the value instead of 1 or 0

Then you probably want:

X:=min(a+b, c+d)

X will get the value of a+b if that is smaller than (or equal to) c+d.

Your IF statement is equivalent to the use of the min() function. The min() function is more compact.
