    The algorithm assigns to each of the two halves n/2 partners – the partners whose line is inside that half. E.g., the partners that drew lines at x = 1 and x = 3 are assigned to the western half and the other two partners are assigned to the eastern half. Each half is divided recursively among the n/2 partners assigned to it.
