Latin Text to Hipster Text Converter

Standard Latin characters occupy a narrow band of the Unicode table. Hundreds of visually similar glyphs exist across Cyrillic (Ʌ for A), Greek (Σ for E), and mathematical symbol blocks (∀ for A). This converter performs deterministic-random substitution: each input character c is mapped against a curated pool of 2 - 6 Unicode alternatives, and one is selected per conversion pass. The output follows witch house typographic convention: all uppercase, high glyph density. Misusing arbitrary Unicode without a vetted mapping table produces unreadable output or characters that fail to render on target systems. This tool restricts substitutions to glyphs present in most modern font stacks (Segoe UI, Noto, Arial Unicode MS) to minimize rendering failures.

The mapping covers 26 Latin letters plus 10 digits, totaling over 120 unique glyph alternatives. Each conversion is non-deterministic: running the same input twice yields different visual results. This tool approximates the aesthetic assuming the display font supports the referenced Unicode blocks. Characters outside the A - Z and 0-9 range pass through unmodified. Pro tip: test your output in the target platform (social media bio, poster, etc.) before committing, as glyph support varies across operating systems.

The conversion algorithm operates on a per-character substitution model. For each input character c, the system queries a glyph map G and selects one replacement at random from the available pool.

Where G is the glyph mapping dictionary with |G| = 36 keys (A - Z, 0-9). Each key maps to a set of n Unicode alternatives where 2 ≤ n ≤ 6. The function rand(a, b) returns a uniformly distributed integer in [a, b]. The total input string S of length L is processed as:

Where upper converts each character to uppercase before substitution. The concatenation operator produces the final hipsterified string. Time complexity is O(L) with constant-time dictionary lookup per character.
