I'm trying to graph f(x,y)=(e^x )* cos(y)
By using ulframalpha, I found that the graph should look like this.
![](https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/394693/image.gif)
>> x=[-4*pi:0.1:4*pi];
>> y=[-4*pi:0.1:4*pi];
>> [X,Y]=meshgrid(x,y);
>> Z=exp(X)*cos(Y);
>> surf(X,Y,Z)
My code look like this, and the result keep shows me this, flat plane.

I changed range for several times, but I don't think that range is not problem.
Can you see any problem in my code?
Any help would be aprreciated.

Z=exp(X).*cos(Y);
Remember that the * operator is matrix multiplication (inner product). Multiplication of corresponding elements requires the .* operator.
