This library provides an easy and convenient way to perform conversions between Maidenhead Grid Squares and latitudes and longitudes.

# Example

Ready to use example can be found in cmd/main.go

Alternatively, you can use the following code snippet:

```go

package main

import (

	"fmt"

	"log"

	"github.com/8ff/maidenhead"

)

func main() {

	// Convert lat/long to Maidenhead locator

	locator, err := maidenhead.GetGrid(45.5231, -122.6765)

	if err != nil {

		log.Fatal(err)

	}

	fmt.Printf("Grid: %s\n", locator)

	// Convert Maidenhead locator to lat/long

	lat, long, err := maidenhead.GetCoordinates("CN85pm")

	if err != nil {

		log.Fatal(err)

	}

	fmt.Printf("Coordinates: %f, %f\n", lat, long)

}
