if Alpha=2 then plan =3;
if Alpha=3 then plan =1;
else if Alpha=4 then plan =0;
if Beta=2 then plan =2;
else Beta=3 then plan =1;
else if Beta=4 then plan =0;
I want to get the minimum/lower plan under the below condition? so as an answer I need beta here
if Alpha=2 then plan =3;
if Beta=2 then plan =2;
If I understand you correctly, create two variables (plan_Alpha and plan_Beta) instead of one. Then it's easy to obtain the result you describe:
if alpha=beta=2 then plan = min(plan_alpha, plan_beta);
Assuming you have correctly calculated Alpha and Beta (and looking at your logic it appears it needs a little cleaning up), you could use:
plan = min(alpha, beta);
To get that, you will need to show more of the data. What you posted doesn't illustrate either variable "hitting 2".
