\nThe cardinal compass directions are north(N), south(S), east(E) and west(W).
\nThere are four intercardinal directions. For example, northeast(NE) is half-way between north and east.
\nThere are eight further points on the compass rose. For example, west-southwest(WSW) is half-way between west and southwest.

\nTo check the statement \"Wyndham is northeast of Geraldton\", for example,
\nimagine placing the centre of the compass on Geraldton,
\nand then check whether Wyndham lies in a northeasterly direction.
\nThis statement is true, as Wyndham lies a northeasterly direction when the compass is centred on Geraldton.
\nNote that when applying these compass directions to a map, they are approximate rather than exact.
