MATLAB: Plotting cos(omega*t)

plot

Hi, How do you plot cos(omega*t) where omega=2*pi*f, for range of frequency like (20:2000). I am confused because there is both time and frequency, do we need to convert time to frequency domain?

This might guide you a little:
t = linspace(0,10,1000) ; % time vector
f = 20 ; % a frequency
omega = 2.*pi.*f ; % calculate omega
y = cos(omega.*t) ; % calculate cosine for this time span
plot(t,y) % plot it
(btw, I prefer to use the .* notation for multiplication)
