// FLEXINPUT
// This is a collection of scripts for adding flexible input to
// intfcol. It uses the lfpstim function that Bill
// wrote, plus an adaptation of "sgrcells" from col.hoc.
// Version: 2011may19 by cliffk
// POISADD
// This function adds an arbitrary Poisson input to a particular
// population or populations of cells. It calls poistim followed
// by stimadd.
// Usage:
// poisadd(signal,timei,timef,freq,cellpop,cellprct,cellwt,whichsy)
// where
// signal describes the probability of a spike at a given time (e.g. a 10K-element sine wave)
// timei is the start time of the stimulus (in ms, e.g. 2e3)
// timef is the end time of the stimulus (in ms, e.g. 5e3)
// freq is the number of spikes (in Hz, e.g. 10) (note: signal.size() must be greater than (timef-timei)*freq!)
// pop is a vector of cell populations (e.g. [E2,E4,E5])
// cellwt is the weight given to each spike (e.g. 1e9)
// whichsy is the synapse used (e.g. AM2)
// Version: 2011may20

//** spktimevec = poistim(signal,timei,timef,freq)
// signal is vector giving the input signal - eg LFP
// timei gives the initial time time of the signal
// timef gives the final time of the signal, thus timespan is timef-timei
// freq gives the target freq for the spike train -- this is approximate
// Example:
// objref signal, spktimevec
// signal=new Vector()
// signal.indgen(0.1,0.9,0.001)
// spktimevec=poistim(signal,10,5)
// spktimevec.size() = 50
// Note: the number of points in "signal" must be equal to or greater than the number of spikes!
