creates - completely vectorized - a logical array/vector <lvec> with epochs/intervals set to <1|TRUE> according to a list of indices of the form:
begin = [b1 b2 ... bN]
end = [e1 e2 ... eN]
where <b>s and <e>s may overlap or be included within each other.
lvec=[b1:e1 b2:e2 ... bN:eN]
itself can be used to retrieve/assign values from a numerical construct, eg,
vec(1,2,lvec)=nan;

help mep
vix = mep(v,ixb,ixe)
vix = mep(v,[ixb;ixe])
to create epochs

returns in VIX a <logical> array with epochs set to
true: ixb(1)->ixe(1) ... ixb(N)->ixe(N)
false: otherwise
correctly handles epoch overlaps/inclusions/reversals

v: vector (to size VIX, is not changed)
ixb: list of indices BEGIN epoch
ixe: list of indices END epoch
