The 16 directions on a compass rose are: * North * South * East * West * Northeast * Northwest * Southeast * Southwest * North Northeast * East Northeast * North Northwest * West Northwest * South Southeast * East southeast * South Southwest * West Southwest.
For example, north-east is halfway between north and east.

"Boxing the compass" is the act of reciting the 32 principal points of the compass. It was a necessary skill of all mariners before the mid1930's. Up until this time, ship's officers would give the helmsman orders to "steer south-east by south" for example. On board a modern ship, the equivalent order would be "steer one-four-six degrees." So, to box the compass, start at north and work clock-wise. North, north by east, north-northeast, north-east by north, north-east, northeast by east, east-northeast, east by north, east, east by south, east-southeast, southeast by east, southeast, southeast by south, south-southeast, south by east south, south by west, south-southwest, southwest by south, southwest, southwest by west, west-southwest, west by south west, west by north, west-northwest, northwest by west, northwest, northwest by north, north-northwest, north by west, north. 151.88°157.50°163.12° NNW NbW
