Carnot engine is considered the most efficient heat engine.When operated between two temperatures T1 and T2, the efficiency is given by: efficiency=1-T1/T2 where T1<=T2 and both are in kelvin. Given the temperatures in degree celsius, find the efficiency.

T1 and T2 do not necessarily imply x(1) and x(2).the higher temp. is always in den.

I have used Max(x) and Min(x) ... then also the test case does not satisfy...
