Separate an integer into two (nearly) equal parts

Question

I need to separate an integer into two numbers. Something like dividing by two but I only want integer components as a result, such as:

6 = 3 and 3
7 = 4 and         


        

Answer 1

Your code can be simplified a bit:

var num = 7;
var p1 = Math.floor(num / 2);
var p2 = p1;

if (num % 2 != 0) {
   p1++;
}
console.log(p1, p2);
