function [r1, r2] = gnR1R2(NP1, NP2, r0)

% gnA1A2 generate two column vectors r1 and r2 of size NP1 & NP2, respectively
%    r1's elements are choosen from {1, 2, ..., NP1} & r1(i) ~= r0(i)
%    r2's elements are choosen from {1, 2, ..., NP2} & r2(i) ~= r1(i) & r2(i) ~= r0(i)
%
% Call:
%    [r1 r2 ...] = gnA1A2(NP1)   % r0 is set to be (1:NP1)'
%    [r1 r2 ...] = gnA1A2(NP1, r0) % r0 should be of length NP1
