MATLAB: How to write down functions

matlab function

How do i write xe^x^2-10^6 and 2x^2 e^x^2+e^x^2 on matlab? I can't figure it out. Matlab says it's an invalid expression

You need to specify the multiplication operator in MATLAB explicitly. Also, 'e' is not defined as a constant in MATLAB
y1 = x*exp(x^2)-10^6
y2 = 2*x^2*exp(x^2)+exp(x^2)
If 'x' is a vector then use element-wise operators
y1 = x.*exp(x.^2)-10^6
y2 = 2*x.^2.*exp(x.^2)+exp(x.^2)
