MATLAB: Mesh plotting with eqn

3d plottingmesh

I am trying to plot this code as a mesh plot but it keeps on giving me an error for the mesh(x,y,z) line everytime I try it. with ranges -1<=x<=1 and -2*pi <=y<=2*pi with the eqn : exp(x+i*y)
xd=linspace(-1,1);
yd=linspace(-2*pi ,2*pi);
[x,y]=meshgrid(xd,yd);
u= x+1i.*y;
z= exp(u);
mesh(x,y,z)
can someone help me out please

You are taking exp() of a variety of complex numbers. Some of the results you are going to get are going to be complex numbers. mesh() cannot be used on complex results.
