The pdf of exponential distribution is defined as. However, MATLAB defines it in term of its mean value μ as shown here: https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2020a/stats/exponential-distribution.html#brn2ivz-25. If you are given value of λ then you can first convert into μ using and then call exprnd.
