Temporo-septal engram shift model of hippocampal memory. The model posits that memories gradually move along the hippocampus from a temporal encoding site to ever more septal sites from which they are recalled. We propose that the sense of time is encoded by the location of the engram along the temporo-septal axis.

COMMENT
randwd   randomly chooses n bits to set to 1
hamming  v.hamming(v1) is hamming distance between 2 vecs
flipbits v.flipbits(scratch,num) flips num rand chosen bits
flipbalbits v.flipbalbits(scratch,num) balanced flipping
vpr      v.vpr prints out vector as 1 (x[i]>0) or 0 (x[i]<=0)
thresh   turns analog vec to BVBASE,1 vec separating at thresh (scalar or vec)
triplet  return location of a triplet in a vector
onoff    turns state vec on or off depending on values in other vecs
bpeval   used by backprop: vo=outp*(1-outp)*del
w        like where but sets chosen nums // modified from .wh in 1.23
xing     determines where vector crosses in a positive direction (destructive)
xzero    count 0 crossings by putting in a 1 or -1
indset(ind,val) sets spots indexed by ind to val
ismono([arg]) checks if a vector is monotonically increaseing (-1 decreasing)
count(num) count the number of nums in vec
scr.fewind(ind,vec1,vec2[,vec3,vec4]) // uses ind as index into other vecs
scr.nind(ind,vec1,vec2[,vec3,vec4]) // uses ind to elim elems in other vecs
vdest.intrp(flag) // interpolate numbers replacing numbers given as flag
v.insct(v1,v2)   // return v1 intersect v2
v.cvlv(v1,v2)   // convolve v1 with v2
fac      not vec related - returns factorial
logfac   not vec related - returns log factorial
v2d      copy into a double block
d2v      copy out of a double block NB: same as vec.from_double()
frd      perform an fread
