Is this what you'd like to do?

       x = 0 : 0.1 : 6;
       y = 0 : 0.1 : 10;
       [x, y] = meshgrid (x, y);
       f = 2 * x .* sin(2*pi*y) + 4 * x .* cos(2*pi*y);
       mesh (x,y,f)

Notice the use of ".*" instead of "*"

Ok, thank you. This works. Now, after this function I try this one:

f = exp(-((x .- 6 / 3)^2)) * sin(2 * pi * y / 10);

Instead of ".*" it has ".-". The "A must be square" message is directed at the "=" sign. As far as I can see from the docs, this function should be no problem. What could be wrong here?

Thank you.
