 I have m vectors v with different lengths, and a n X m matrix of indices.
I wish to transform the index matrix to a matrix of values of v, with each 
column representing values of v.

  Can this transformation be accomplished without looping ? Using loops
the transformation is straightforward, awkward, and time consuming.
