% input:
%    v1,v2,v3,... - numeric vectors defining the lattice in
%                   each dimension.
%                   Each vector must be of length >= 1
%
% output:
%    node - factorial lattice created from (v1,v2,v3,...)
%           Each row of this array is one node in the lattice
%    elem - integer array defining simplexes as references to
%           rows of "node".
%
% example:
%     [node,elem]=meshgrid6(0:5,0:6,0:4);
%     plotmesh(node,elem);
