Convert a longitude to the UTM zone.

The formula is based on the wikipedia description: The UTM system divides the surface of Earth between 80S and 84N latitude into 60 zones, each 6 of longitude in width. Zone 1 covers longitude 180 to 174 W; zone numbering increases eastward to zone 60 that covers longitude 174 to 180 East.
