Problem comparing formatted constants

[-MFra-]

Good evening to all of the community,
I have this little problem (see photo) that I can't solve ... in fact I want the "Case 2" to work too. How to do?

Do you think your problem is related to the 'user-1' formatting of these variables?

What do you add p-numbers for, I don't see the function actually use the value of p...?

I bet it's the if-statement that doesn't like to compare different symbols (in Mathcad 11 even comparing alpha with alpha is a problem).

Since you want the function CMx to output a 0 or a 1: What if you evaluate the last two expressions numerically (=) instead of symbolically (->)?

Try defining CMx simply as:

CMx(A,B) := A=B

Success!
