Index exceeds the number of array elements (1000).

Because the index exceeds the array there is also an error in this line:
segE(i,ch,rep,task) = bandpower(edat(sg1:sg2));

Unfortunately you forgot to attach subject1.mat, so we don't know. All we know is that segE doesn't have dimensions as big as any of those indexes, and same for edat. Just do normal debugging to check out what the size of everything is and figure out why you're asking for some element that's beyond the end of the array. Attach subject1.mat if you need more help, after you read this link.

Hi Samantha,
Yes, as mentioned by you in the comments. When ever there is an index accessing the array or matrix, beyond its size. You get indexing error.
For your problem here, without knowing much about what you are looking for, I suggest placing if condition before accessing the edat. Something like if sg1 <= length(edat) && sg2 <= length (edat), only then execute the command segE. This would avoide an indexing error.
Hope this helps. Regards, Sriram
