Conversion from double to sum not possible - Plot, please help!

Hello, here is my code:
_______
syms x;
syms theta;
y = exp(-abs(x/pi))
a0 = (1/pi)*int(y,0,pi);
dy = diff(y,1);
k = 1:10;
for i = 1:length(k)
a(i) = ((-1)^(i))*2*dy/(i^2);
end
for i = 1:length(k);
g(i) = a(i)*cos(i*theta);
end
fit = a0 + g;
theta = linspace(-pi,pi,50);
plot(theta,fit);
_____
However I get an error saying "Conversion from double to sym is not possible when I try to plot.
My "fit" equation works just fine., I get an equation in terms of 'theta'. But when I try to plot this equation vs, values of theta, these values are in an array, i get the error.
Can somebody please let me know what I should do, specifically, to fix this?
Thanks!!!!

You cannot plot "equations". You can only plot points. You must evaluate your fit at the series of points that you would like to plot. Then plot those values.
