Hi,
Alternatively, try :-
$Compass = array('West', 'North Westerly', 'North', 'North
Easterly',
'East', 'South Easterly', 'South',
'South Westerly');
print $Compass[round($Degrees / 45)] . "\n";
This can be expanded easily by adding 'North North West' etc. at the
relevant points in the array and changing the 45 to 22.5.
No messy horrible switches :-)
TTFN,
Dave
