CHOICE(condition, ExpressionIfTrue, ExpressionIfFalse)

The expressions are anything that you could normally assign to a variable or use in a command and can be integers, floats or strings
e.g.
print choice(1, "hello","bye") will print "Hello"
print choice(0, "hello","bye") will print "Bye"
a=1:b=1:print choice(a=b, 4,5) will print 4

INPUT x
answer$ = CHOICE(x>5,"High","Low")
PRINT answer$
LOOP
' old method
DO
INPUT x
IF x > 5 THEN
answer$ = "High"
ELSE
answer$ = "Low"
ENDIF
