Help with javascript function return data on page

I am having trouble getting this javascript to function. It is supposed to take the compass heading and return a character based on the heading. N, S, E, W...

<script>
	function degToCompass(num) {
    var val = Math.floor((num / 22.5) + 0.5);
    var arr = ["N", "NNE", "NE", "ENE", "E", "ESE", "SE", "SSE", "S", "SSW", "SW", "WSW", "W", "WNW", "NW", "NNW"];
    return arr[(val % 16)];
}
</script>

I have the function in the header.php page and include it at the top of this page

<?php 
include_once("dbconnect.php");
include_once("header.php");

//error dump for testing
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
?>


<?php 

// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
  die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
//echo "Connected successfully";
?>

<?php 
//$today = strtotime('today midnight');
//$yesterday = date('d.m.Y', strtotime("-1 days"));

$sql = "
SELECT
avg(winddir) as avgwinddir
, MAX(temp) as maxtemp
, MIN(temp) as mintemp

";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {

echo "
		<table border=1 width=100%>

						//output data of each row
						while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {

				</table>

					</tr>
				</table>
			</td>
		</tr>";
			}
echo "</table>";
} else {
 echo "0 results";
}


$conn->close();

?>

I can't figure out why the function won't display. I even broke it down to a basic page with only the function and trying to output on the page and nothing returns but "This is a test."

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
	function degToCompass(num) {
    var val = Math.floor((num / 22.5) + 0.5);
    var arr = ["N", "NNE", "NE", "ENE", "E", "ESE", "SE", "SSE", "S", "SSW", "SW", "WSW", "W", "WNW", "NW", "NNW"];
    return arr[(val % 16)];
}
</script>	
</head>
<body>


<?php

echo '<script type="text/javascript"> degToCompass(180); </script>'; 
echo  "This is a test."

?>

</body>
</html>

This is the field on the page I am trying to have the function display

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Barand,

Thanks for the tip. I did some research and converted the javascript function to a php function as you suggested.

It's working now!

function degOfCompass($num) {
    $val = floor(($num / 22.5) + 0.5);
    $arr = ["N", "NNE", "NE", "ENE", "E", "ESE", "SE", "SSE", "S", "SSW", "SW", "WSW", "W", "WNW", "NW", "NNW"];
    return $arr[($val % 16)];
	//return $num;
}
