Thanks for this comment. rri, t and tNN are time indices, indicating the time [seconds] related to a RR or NN interval. I’ll make sure the naming is consistent in all the functions and update description accordingly.

nn_win = rr( rri >= WinStarIdxs(i_win) & rri < WinStarIdxs(i_win) + windowlength );
rri is used to generate indices not as an index

Anyway, source is "t" variable at "Main_HRV_Analysis.m", that also has ambiguous definition: https://github.com/cliffordlab/PhysioNet-Cardiovascular-Signal-Toolbox/blob/aebdcc0d294158d6de1bff2088ca6e276d6ca97d/Main_HRV_Analysis.m#L13
If these variables are time variables (units are seconds), then there is contradiction with cases where it is used as index.
If it is index please remove unit name "seconds" from Main_HRV_Analysis.m and include check whether it is integer. Also seems, we usually don't need it at all as input, because we can generate it internally, e.g. for Main_HRV_Analysis.m
if strcmpi(InputFormat,'RRIntervals') t=1:length(InputSig) end
in other cases it described not be used anyway: https://github.com/cliffordlab/PhysioNet-Cardiovascular-Signal-Toolbox/blob/aebdcc0d294158d6de1bff2088ca6e276d6ca97d/Main_HRV_Analysis.m#L14
Or to generate internally for prsa.m: rri=1:length(rr)
Please clarify these variables.

Yes, but rri
is compared to WinStarIdxs
, which ends with ...Idxs
– name suggesting to index (of of time point), not to time (in seconds).
Thanks for this comment. rri, t and tNN are time indices, indicating the time [seconds] related to a RR or NN interval.
Suggesting descriptions with units: "time (in seconds)" or "indices (integers) of time points". Please don't mention word "seconds" near "time indices" or "time points".
