		+
		+	Say I've made a macro that should have some sent keys set by a variable, perhaps in a loop. An example:
		+
		+	<syntaxhighlight lang=autohotkey>
		+	F3::
		+	WinActivate, Notepad
		+	Send, SOMENAME is a model citizen with NUMBER years of experience.{Enter}
		+	Return
		+	</syntaxhighlight>
		+
		+	Simple example of using variables:
		+
		+	<syntaxhighlight lang=autohotkey>
		+	F3::
		+	WinActivate, Notepad
		+	someName = Larry
		+	years = 9
		+	Send, %someName% is a model citizen with %years% years of experience.{Enter}
		+	Return
		+	</syntaxhighlight>
		+
		+	Factored out into a function (note that the name must now have quotes):
		+
		+	<syntaxhighlight lang=autohotkey>
		+	SayThePhrase(someName, years)
		+	{
		+	WinActivate, Notepad
		+	Send, %someName% is a model citizen with %years% years of experience.{Enter}
		+	}
		+
		+	F3::
		+	SayThePhrase("Larry", 9)
		+	Return
		+	</syntaxhighlight>
		+
		+	Looping without the function:
		+
		+	<syntaxhighlight lang=autohotkey>
		+	F3::
		+	nameList = Larry,Moe,Curly
		+	yearsList = 9,12,4
		+	StringSplit, names, nameList, `,
		+	StringSplit, yearses, yearsList, `,
		+	; A note on "arrays": AHK does not have a built-in array type; arrays are
		+	; simulated by concatenating a base variable name with an index. As implemented
		+	; by StringSplit, the array is 1-based and the array length is stored at the
		+	; zero index. In this example, names0 would be set to 3 and names1, names2, and
		+	; names3 would be set to each successive name.
		+	Loop, %names0%
		+	{
		+	; a_index is the loop counter.
		+	someName := names%a_index%
		+	years := yearses%a_index%
		+	WinActivate, Notepad
		+	Send, %someName% is a model citizen with %years% years of experience.{Enter}
		+	}
		+	Return
		+	</syntaxhighlight>
		+
		+	Looping with the function:
		+
		+	<syntaxhighlight lang=autohotkey>
		+	SayThePhrase(someName, years)
		+	{
		+	WinActivate, Notepad
		+	Send, %someName% is a model citizen with %years% years of experience.{Enter}
		+	}
		+
		+	F3::
		+	nameList = Larry,Moe,Curly
		+	yearsList = 9,12,4
		+	StringSplit, names, nameList, `,
		+	StringSplit, yearses, yearsList, `,
		+	Loop, %names0%
		+	{
		+	SayThePhrase(names%a_index%, yearses%a_index%)
		+	}
		+	Return
		+	</syntaxhighlight>
