Hi,

Im stuck with something simple, i cant figure out :)

This works fine =>

// test score
// sound chain;
SinOsc s => dac;
// create class with a function to return midi values
//given and input string
class mymidivals {
int result;
fun int midivals (string x){
if (x == "c4") 60 => result;
if (x == "d4") 62 => result;
if (x == "e4") 64 => result;
if (x == "f4") 65 => result;
if (x == "g4") 67 => result;
if (x == "a4") 69 => result;
if (x == "b4") 71 => result;
if (x == "c5") 72 => result;
return result;
} // fun
}// class

//define object
mymidivals midivals;

// create array with the melody notes
["c4","d4","e4","f4","g4","a4","b4","c5" ] @=> string song[];
song.cap() => int songcap;
for (0 => int i; i < songcap ; i++) {
0.2 =>s.gain;
Std.mtof(midivals.midivals(song[i])) => s.freq;
0.5::second => now;

===================================

But if i put the function mymidivals on a .ck file like this

//midivaltest.ck
// create class with a function to return midi values
//given and input string
public class mymidivals {
int result;
fun int midivals (string x){
if (x == "c4") 60 => result;
if (x == "d4") 62 => result;
if (x == "e4") 64 => result;
if (x == "f4") 65 => result;
if (x == "g4") 67 => result;
if (x == "a4") 69 => result;
if (x == "b4") 71 => result;
if (x == "c5") 72 => result;
return result;
} // fun
}// class
mymidivals midivals;

=============================================

and if call it this way, it does not work, error => undefined variable "midivals"

// test score

// sound chain;
SinOsc s => dac;;

// midivaltest.ck lives on same dir as this code
Machine.add(me.dir() + "midivaltest.ck");
// create array with the melody notes
["c4","d4","e4","f4","g4","a4","b4","c5" ] @=> string song[];
song.cap() => int songcap;
for (0 => int i; i < songcap ; i++) {
0.2 =>s.gain;
Std.mtof(midivals.midivals(song[i])) => s.freq;
0.5::second => now;
}

-------------------------------------------------------

any ideas ? Thanks
