Energy Plus - How to create and use epw and ddy files?

Hi, I would like to ask about .epw and .ddy weather files and their use in Energy Plus.

I have specific hourly data that I would like to use, e.g. temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and wind direction for a typical day for each month of the year (12 typical days).

Do I have to create both files (.epw, .ddy) for an annual simulation of a building and its HVAC systems and if yes, how to do it?

Many thanks in advance
