direction

Hi, In my app I use the getdistancefrom method in my app and get a distance between a current location and another set location.

I would like to as well find the direction the other set location is in. What would the code look like to make this iPhone sdk call.

The output would look something like: Location is 500 feet North West

Thanks!
