Hello  
I am trying to excecute the program but facing the issue only when i am trying to plot the fucntion,  
**//my program**  
n\_samples = 15  
lower\_bound = 0  
upper\_bound = 14/15  
x = sample(n\_samples, lower\_bound, upper\_bound, SobolSample())  
f = x-\>exp(x_cos(3_(22/7)\*x))  
y = f.(x)  
scatter(x, y, label=“Sampled Points”, xlims=(lower\_bound, upper\_bound), legend=:top)  
plot!(x,y, scatter(x, y, label=“Sampled Points”, xlims=(lower\_bound, upper\_bound), legend=:top))

**//error iam getting**  
MethodError: no method matching Plots.Plot{Plots.GRBackend}(::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char, ::Char)

Hello and welcome. First of all, you should provide minimal working examples (you were missing the include/using statements to make it self-contained) and format code properly: to enable proper highlighting, you should enclose code in backticks `.

Single backticks like `Code` will appear as `code` for inline use. Longer sections should be included in triple backticks:

```julia  
Some very  
Long code  
Here  
```

Will appear as:

```julia
Some very
Long code 
Here

```

In terms of the original question:

> [@Manisha\_07](#):

This line looks odd. There’s a scatter inside a plot, both with x and y provided, although I don’t know if plot does that, it takes lots of things without complaining.
