x = 0:0.1:10;
y = exppdf(x,2);
Plot the pdf.
figure;
plot(x,y)
what if I have P (0 <x< 10) , how should I write it in matlab?
Thanks

P is probability where x > 0 and x<10

Ah, probability isn't really my strong suit, as a concept.
From what little I do understand, wouldn't the probability of any individual value of x (not sure if this is what condition you're actually looking at) is within the range of 0 < x < 10 just be the percentage of x values within that range? If so, you can calculate that like the following:
P = sum(x>0&x<10)/length(x);
