How do I take an exponential of a linspace variable

I'm very new to MATLAB so please bear with me. I am trying to plot a function with a linspace variable as my independent. The problem I am having is that I have to use 'exp(y)' where y is my linspace variable. As soon as I do this, I get errors. I know that when performing certain operations on these variable I have to use a dot operator to make it work properly (although I still don't understand why), but I cannot figure out a way to make this work.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You are messing up with point to point calculations, I guess...attach your code..you problem will be sorted.
