to = 40;

% initial ball temperature

% Get the time constant from user

% verify that it is a value between 20 and 100

while ((T1<20)||(T1>100))

% Get the time constant from user

% verify that it is a value between 20 and 100

while ((T2<20)||T2>100)

    T2 =input('Entered value does not lie between 20 and 100. Reenter the value: ');

% Initialize the variables

% verify the stopping the condition that the value of temperature for all 3 arrays to be plotted is less than 80 degrees Celsius

Temp2 = (ti-to).*exp(-t./T2)+to;

Temp3 = (ti-to).*exp(-t./T3)+to;
