Which
Which[
,
,
,
, ... ] evaluates each of the  in turn, returning the value of the  corresponding to the first one that yields True.
Example: Which[1==2, x, 1==1, y] .
Which has attribute HoldAll.
If any of the  evaluated by Which give neither True nor False, then a Which object containing these remaining elements is returned unevaluated.
You can make Which return a "default value" by taking the last  to be True.
If all the  evaluate to False, Which returns Null.
See the Mathematica book: Section 2.5.8.
