MATLAB: Error creating a new type of fit using fittype. Expression “____” is not a valid MATLAB expression, has non-scalar coefficients, or cannot be evaluated

curve fittingMATLAB

This is what I have:
myfittype=fittype('a*exp(b*x)cos(c*x)',...
    'dependent',{'y'},'independent',{'x'},...
    'coefficients',{'a','b','c'})
f2=fit(xo,Vox,myfittype)
figure
plot(f2,xo,Vox)
This is the error I get:
Error using fittype/testCustomModelEvaluation
(line 12)
Expression a.*exp(b.*x)cos(c.*x) is not a valid
MATLAB expression, has non-scalar coefficients,
or cannot be evaluated:
Error in fittype expression ==>
a.*exp(b.*x)cos(c.*x)
??? Error: Unexpected MATLAB expression.

Caused by:

Does anyone know? Please help

Best Answer

a*exp(b*x)cos(c*x)
has no operation between (b*x) and cos(c*x)
MATLAB does not have implicit multiplication.
