Problem A.Ant on a Chessboard
One day, an ant called Alice came to an M*M chessboard. She wanted to go around all the grids. So she began to walk along the chessboard according to this way: (you can assume that her speed is one grid per second)
At the first second, Alice was standing at (1,1). Firstly she went up for a grid, then a grid to the right, a grid downward. After that, she went a grid to the right, then two grids upward, and then two grids to the left…in a word, the path was like a snake.
For example, her first 25 seconds went like this:
( the numbers in the grids stands for the time when she went into the grids)

At the 8th second , she was at (2,3), and at 20th second, she was at (5,4).
Your task is to decide where she was at a given time.
(you can assume that M is large enough)
Input file will contain several lines, and each line contains a number N(1<=N<=2*10^9), which stands for the time. The file will be ended with a line that contains a number 0.
For each input situation you should print a line with two numbers (x, y), the column and the row number, there must be only a space between them.
