3. Create an output file - an empty txt file to which the program will write the output to.

   python wordsearch.py [path-to-words-file] [path-to-matrix-file] [path-to-output-file] directions

   Where directions is any string formed from the letters 'urdlwxyz' representing 8 directions to search in.
