I tried to use "<>" (not equals) with trog's If Then Else example, but doesn't work. The other symbol "!=" acts as Equals. I don't expect the primitive to handle "IsSquareRootOf" or other extravagant conditions, but I would think Not Equals is a standard condition test?
Suggestion: Please add Contains, StartsWith, EndsWith, for better string searching. Could use Extract & String Find, but would make it more complete...

How would the logic work for not equals? If you have multiple condition inputs, then more than one is going to satisfy the not equals condition. I guess you'd need a clear rule to determine which condition is matched (either the first or last).

Theoretically you're right but i guess an "unequal" op wouldn't make so much sense. It would only change between two results . If an input is unequal (true) to the first comparison it would alway stop a the first entry. If an input is equal to the first comparison it would stop at the next unequal comparison. That's the second entry. The else state couldn't sbe reached at all. So a simple selector would do the job. I hope i understood that prim correctly... 🙂
edit: Oh Andrew was first...
