Hello,

there are several ways to do it.  You can use If or Which.

Example:

(* if[condition, true, false] *)

In[54]:=
w[i_,j_]:=If[i > j, Print["Eq 2"],Print["Eq 1"]]

In[55]:=
w[1,2]

Eq 1

In[56]:=
w[2,1]

Eq 2


Of course you would substitute your eq1 and eq2 appropriately.

Cheers ... Wilson
