David implemented the condition by multiplying by x[1]<x[2] which in a numeric context is 0 when x[1]<x[2] en 1 when x[1]>=x[2].

OOPS!! Reverse the 0 and the 1 in that sentence (TRUE becomes 1 and FALSE becomes 0)

I didn't worry about which direction was used for the inequality in this case because of consideration of symmetry. (Thinking about it now, I still think I managed to choose the correct direction.) Obviously such a cavalier attitude should not be carried over to the general situation.

I hit the send button by mistake. (I originally misread Berend's correction.) I'm only posting this to make clear that it was myself, and not Berend, that I was accusing of having been cavalier.
