$charcoal is local to your function. You can do it in two ways..

1.
function technique($t) {
        global $charcoal;

        switch ($t) {
                case 'C':
                     echo $charcoal;

2.
function technique($t) {
        switch ($t) {
                case 'C':
                     echo $GLOBAL['charcoal'];
