function data = rrgenV2(tmax, NoEctopic, NoNoise, seed, filename);
% data = rrgenV2(tmax, NoEctopic, NoNoise, seed, 'filename');
% generates artificial rr time series over a time tmax seconds
% and dumps the output to 'filename'. If filename is not specified,
% the output is returned into the data array. If it is specified, then the
% data array is zero-valued and of length(tmax). 
% If NoEctopic == 1 (YES) then no ectopics are added to the time series.
% If NoNoise    == 1 (YES) then no artifact is added to the time series.
% Defaults : tmax=3600*24; NoEctopic=1; NoNoise=1; seed=1;
%
% Requires rrgenV2 binary - compilation of rrgenV2.c on your system:
% gcc -Wall rrgenV2.c -lm -o rrgenV2
