Associative array not working

[double_jumper]

I'm making this code to convert text into the monospaced unicode version, but for some reason "Monospace[A_LoopField]" returns an empty string. (don't worry about my sanity, I used a macro to make the array)

Code: Select all

Monospace := {"!": "！", """": "＂", "#": "＃", "$": "＄", "%": "％", "&": "＆", "'": "＇", "(": "（", ")": "）", "*": "＊", "+": "＋", ",": "，", "-": "－", ".": "．", "/": "／", "0": "０", "1": "１", "2": "２", "3": "３", "4": "４", "5": "５", "6": "６", "7": "７", "8": "８", "9": "９", ":": "：", ";": "；", "<": "＜", "=": "＝", ">": "＞", "?": "？", "@": "＠", "A": "Ａ", "B": "Ｂ", "C": "Ｃ", "D": "Ｄ", "E": "Ｅ", "F": "Ｆ", "G": "Ｇ", "H": "Ｈ", "I": "Ｉ", "J": "Ｊ", "K": "Ｋ", "L": "Ｌ", "M": "Ｍ", "N": "Ｎ", "O": "Ｏ", "P": "Ｐ", "Q": "Ｑ", "R": "Ｒ", "S": "Ｓ", "T": "Ｔ", "U": "Ｕ", "V": "Ｖ", "W": "Ｗ", "X": "Ｘ", "Y": "Ｙ", "Z": "Ｚ", "[": "［", "\": "＼", "]": "］", "^": "＾", "_": "＿", "a": "ａ", "b": "ｂ", "c": "ｃ", "d": "ｄ", "e": "ｅ", "f": "ｆ", "g": "ｇ", "h": "ｈ", "i": "ｉ", "j": "ｊ", "k": "ｋ", "l": "ｌ", "m": "ｍ", "n": "ｎ", "o": "ｏ", "p": "ｐ", "q": "ｑ", "r": "ｒ", "s": "ｓ", "t": "ｔ", "u": "ｕ", "v": "ｖ", "w": "ｗ", "x": "ｘ", "y": "ｙ", "z": "ｚ", "{": "｛", "|": "｜", "}": "｝"}
Convert(input){
	Loop, parse, input
	{
		output := output . Monospace[A_LoopField]
	}
	return output
}

Monospace needs to be global, either use global Monospace := or declare global Monospace in Convert function

Thanks, it worked! I just assumed it was global by default since all variables are.

unless a variable is passed to a function, the function has no idea it exists (unless you declair global like HotKeyIt said)

I just assumed it was global by default since all variables are.

Functions are local by default.
