Challenge - find out middle index where sum of both ends are equals

You are given a arrays of number. Find out the array index or position where sum of numbers preceeding the index is equal to sum of number succeeding the index. For ex. arr{2, 4, 4, 5, 4, 1}. in this example middle index will be 2, as sum of preceeding numbers (2+4+4=10) is same as sum of succeeding numbers(5+4+1=10).

JavaScript: var a = prompt("Array:", "2 3 1 4").split(" "), b; for (b = 0; b < a.length; b++) { var c = 0, d = 0; for (var e = 0; e <= b; e++) c += a[e] - 0; for (var f = b + 1; f < a.length; f++) d += a[f] - 0; if (c === d) break; } if (b === a.length) alert("No Index Found!"); else alert("Breaking Index : " + b);
